Penina<\/b>
\n<\/b>Though fever rages in my head,<\/span>
\n<\/span>I still must rise, bathe the children, give them food.<\/span>
\n<\/span>They are <\/span>his<\/i><\/b>, too, but Elkana is over there, with <\/span>her<\/i><\/b>
\n<\/i><\/b>And emptiness fills my tent.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hannah<\/b>
\n<\/b>I see <\/span>her<\/b> children running across the fields,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Climbing fig trees, I hear their laughs<\/span>
\n<\/span>And I beg Elkana \u2013 give me child.<\/span>
\n<\/span>But emptiness fills my womb.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Penina<\/b>
\n<\/b>At night I dream of horseback riders in the fields<\/span>
\n<\/span>Chasing me, overtaking me, and I fall,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Scream out for help, but Elkana is over there, with <\/span>her<\/i><\/b>
\n<\/i><\/b>And emptiness fills my tent. <\/span><\/p>\n

Hannah<\/b>
\n<\/b>Her jibes are arrows that pierce,<\/span>
\n<\/span>Her taunts, spears that tear apart my sleep<\/span>
\n<\/span>And I beg Elkana \u2013 give me child<\/span>
\n<\/span>But emptiness fills my womb.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
