The waves remind us of the Living Water that Christ is for each of us and reminds us of this imperfect woman who Christ trusted to spread the word throughout Samaria. Away he steals with open listening ear, Full of foul hope and full of fond mistrust; Both which, as servitors to the unjust, So cross him with their opposite persuasion, That now he vows a league, and now invasion.

I see what crosses my attempt will bring; I know what thorns the growing rose defends; I think the honey guarded with a sting; All this beforehand counsel comprehends: But will is deaf and hears no heedful friends; Only he hath an eye to gaze on beauty, And dotes on what he looks, 'gainst law or duty. From the depths of the earth, a gentle wind could blow such a cloud away, keeping it from raining on the ground below. Since I blame you for this unforgivable crime, now I'm asking you to keep it dark—don't allow the sun to rise. How could he put up with this threat to his marriage, this dark mark on his youth, this heartbreak in spite of his wisdom?When you feel as if you have nothing left to give, when I see your hands outstretched begging from me, as tears fall from your eyes and we’re both crying.

Though she didn't want to lie down and sleep any more, she kept her eyes shut, wishing she were blind. Which struck her sad, and then it faster rock'd, Until her husband's welfare she did hear; Whereat she smiled with so sweet a cheer, That had Narcissus seen her as she stood, Self-love had never drown'd him in the flood. Her breasts, like ivory globes circled with blue, A pair of maiden worlds unconquered, Save of their lord no bearing yoke they knew, And him by oath they truly honoured.

And yet, he was still set on getting what he wanted, despite the voice of his conscience telling him not to do it. Wrapp'd and confounded in a thousand fears, Like to a new-kill'd bird she trembling lies; She dares not look; yet, winking, there appears Quick-shifting antics, ugly in her eyes: Such shadows are the weak brain's forgeries; Who, angry that the eyes fly from their lights, In darkness daunts them with more dreadful sights.

We take intellectual property concerns very seriously, but many of these problems can be resolved directly by the parties involved.

Each of the doors gave into him but, as they did so, they resisted him as if they were trying to stop his evil plot.
