15The night-spirit has two daughters, Give, give. There are three things which are never full, even four which never say, Enough:
16The underworld, and the woman without a child; the earth which never has enough water, and the fire which never says, Enough.
17The eye which makes sport of a father, and sees no value in a mother when she is old will be rooted out by the ravens of the valley, and be food for the young eagles.

20This is the way of a false wife; she takes food, and, cleaning her mouth, says, I have done no wrong.
