Among the bushes they cry out; under the nettles they huddle together, depicting the mockers' existence as utterly removed from normal human society, their voices crying out in wilderness, their bodies huddled for warmth. The crying among bushes suggests isolation and the absence of civilized communication. The huddling under nettles suggests both seeking shelter among prickly plants and the misery of their living conditions. The verse emphasizes the desolation and suffering of the mockers themselves.
