تَبًّا لَهُ مِنْ خَادِعٍ مُذَاقِقٍ، أَصْفَرَ ذِي وَجْهَيْنِ كَالْمُنَافِقِ
Away with that deceiving yellow thing, two-faced as a hypocrite!
The coin is first an object of admiration and then of rebuke. Its colour and apparent “two-facedness” become moral imagery, although the material coin remains unchanged. The shift lies in the speaker’s rhetorical stance.
The performance reveals flexibility rather than a settled moral position. A speaker able to praise and condemn one object can redirect audience judgment through language. Both poems may be accomplished, but their craftsmanship does not establish that the speaker sincerely holds both opposing evaluations.
