drops

For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:

Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?

And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

The Lord has placed the foundations in the unknown, and has spread forth heavens visible and invisible; he fixed the earth on the waters, and created countless creatures, and who has counted the water and the foundation of the unfixed, or the dust of the earth, or the sand of the sea, or the drops of the rain, or the morning dew, or the wind's breathings? Who has filled earth and sea, and the indissoluble winter?
