  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    It is He Who got out The Unbelievers among The People of the Book From their homes At the first gathering (Of the forces). Little did ye think That they would get out: And they thought That their fortresses Would defend them from God! But the (Wrath of) God Came to them from quarters From which they little Expected (it), and cast Terror into their hearts, So that they destroyed Their dwellings by their own Hands and the hands Of the Believers. Take warning, then, O ye with eyes (to see)!
