You who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree;
who kill the children in the valleys, under the Clefts of the rocks?
My dove in the Clefts of the rock, In the hiding places of the mountainside,
Let me see your face. Let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet, and your face is lovely.

leaving children(roughly 1 in 700 worldwide) with a large gap between their nasal passages and mouth.
