11She is full of noise and uncontrolled; her feet keep not in her house.
12Now she is in the street, now in the open spaces, waiting at every turning of the road.
13So she took him by his hand, kissing him, and without a sign of shame she said to him:
14I have a feast of peace-offerings, for today my oaths have been effected.
15So I came out in the hope of meeting you, looking for you with care, and now I have you.
16My bed is covered with cushions of needlework, with coloured cloths of the cotton thread of Egypt;
17I have made my bed sweet with perfumes and spices.
18Come, let us take our pleasure in love till the morning, having joy in love's delights.
19For the master of the house is away on a long journey:
20He has taken a bag of money with him; he is coming back at the full moon.
21With her fair words she overcame him, forcing him with her smooth lips.
