“When the king,
Heard the charge,
He was very much distressed.
He was determined
To save Daniel.
Until the sun went down,
He made every effort
To rescue him.”
The king, on the other hand, was not too worried about his decree. When he heard the charges against Daniel, he was a little upset and concerned about him. He was determined to save Daniel from the lions. He tried everything to figure out how to rescue Daniel. Finally, the sun set. With that, so did Daniel’s chances of help dim.
