The shower of the edge of eyelids [(lit. ‘edge-showers of eyelids’) EYES > TEARS] of the woman streamed down on the famous trees of both insteps [FEET] of the lord of the windswept heaven [= Christ]. She, who is the wisest of women, washed the footsole-yards [FEET] of the torment-banisher of men [= Christ] with storms of the support-chairs of brows [EYES > TEARS].
