10Who shall finde a vertuous woman? for her price is farre aboue the pearles.
11The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall haue no neede of spoyle.
12She will doe him good, and not euill all the dayes of her life.
13She seeketh wooll and flaxe, and laboureth cheerefully with her handes.
14She is like the shippes of marchants: shee bringeth her foode from afarre.
15And she riseth, whiles it is yet night: and giueth the portion to her houshold, and the ordinarie to her maides.
16She considereth a field, and getteth it: and with the fruite of her handes she planteth a vineyarde.
17She girdeth her loynes with strength, and strengtheneth her armes.
18She feeleth that her marchandise is good: her candle is not put out by night.
19She putteth her handes to the wherue, and her handes handle the spindle.
20She stretcheth out her hand to the poore, and putteth foorth her hands to the needie.
