If We will, We can make it salty. Will you not be thankful?
If We willed We verily could make it bitter. Why then, give ye not thanks
If we pleased we could make it pungent - why then do ye not give thanks
Brackish could we make it, if we pleased: will ye not then be thankful
If We pleased, We could render the same brackish: Will ye not therefore give thanks

Have you seen the fire you kindle?
Have ye observed the fire which ye strike out

What think ye? The fire which ye obtain by friction
What think ye? The fire which ye strike
