that they may keep thee from the evil woman, and from the flattering tongue of the harlot: that thou lust not after her beauty in thine heart, and lest thou be taken with her fair looks. A harlot will make a man to beg his bread, but a married woman will hunt for the precious life. read more.
May a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burnt? Or can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be hurt? Even so, whosoever goeth in to his neighbour's wife, and toucheth her, can not be unguilty.

But whoso committeth adultery with a woman, he is a fool: and destroyeth his own soul. He getteth himself also shame and dishonour, such as shall never be put out. For the jealousy and wrath of the man will not be intreated;

This generation which is like a horse-leech, hath two daughters; the one is called "fetch hither," and the other "bring hither." There be three things that are never satisfied, and the fourth sayeth never, "Hoo." The hell, a woman's womb, and the earth hath never water enough. As for fire, it sayeth never, "Hoo."

Through three things the earth is disquieted, and the fourth may it not bear: through a servant that beareth rule, through a fool that hath great riches, through an idle housewife, and through a handmaiden that is heir to her mistress. There be four things in the earth, the which are very little: but in wisdom they exceed the wise. The Emmets are but a weak people, yet gather they their meat together in the harvest. The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their couches among the rocks. The grasshoppers have not a guide, yet go they forth together by heaps. The spider laboureth with her hands, and that in the kings' palace. There be three things that go stiffly, but the going of the fourth is the goodliest of all. A Lion which is king of beasts, and giveth place to no man; A cock ready to fight; A ram; and a king that goeth forth with his people.
