He began extending his feet to show them [to the holes]

And whenever a snake bit him, he remained silent.

Until when the deadly poison poisoned him, he wept

So the tears woke the Best of Creation, and he trembled.

He said: "What makes you cry, O Abu Bakr?" He said to him:

"I have been bitten, O best of those who walk and were born."

The Chosen One said: "Beware lest you break [the state] for us,"

"For if you break it, the poison returns with force."

Then he spat some of his saliva into his mouth [or on the wound]

And what he felt departed from him, by the praise of Allah.

Then Abu Bakr said: "This sound/presence is outside us!"

"If they come, what will the Steadfast One do?"

So the Prophet extended his hands to the wall to show him

A magnificent door, without pillar or column.

So Abu Bakr remained for hours looking at it

Contemplating the matters of the One, the Unique.
