4Say vnto wisedome, Thou art my sister: and call vnderstanding thy kinswoman,
5That they may keepe thee from the strange woman, euen from the stranger that is smoothe in her wordes.
6As I was in the window of mine house, I looked through my windowe,
7And I sawe among the fooles, and considered among the children a yong man destitute of vnderstanding,
8Who passed through the streete by her corner, and went toward her house,
9In the twilight in the euening, when the night began to be blacke and darke.
10And beholde, there met him a woman with an harlots behauiour, and subtill in heart.
11(She is babling and loud: whose feete can not abide in her house.
12Nowe she is without, nowe in the streetes, and lyeth in waite at euery corner)
13So she caught him and kissed him and with an impudent face said vnto him,
14I haue peace offerings: this day haue I payed my vowes.
15Therefore came I forth to meete thee, that I might seeke thy face: and I haue found thee.
16I haue deckt my bed with ornaments, carpets and laces of Egypt.
