gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king
of princes.

unto him to sin.

The second excerpt represents the element of Fire. It speaks of emotional influences and base passions, and is drawn from King James Bible: people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
DEU 9:14 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name
from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater
than they.
DEU 9:15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned
with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
DEU 9:16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your
God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of
the way which the LORD had commanded you.
DEU 9:17 And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands,
and brake them before your eyes.
