The leech hath two daughters: Give, give. There are three things never satisfied; four which say not, It is enough: Sheol, and the barren womb; the earth which is not filled with water, and the fire which saith not, It is enough.
There are three things too wonderful for me, and four that I know not: The way of an eagle in the heavens, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid. Such is the way of an adulterous woman: she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness. read more.
Under three things the earth is disquieted, and under four it cannot bear up: Under a servant when he reigneth, and a churl when he is filled with meat; under an odious woman when she is married, and a handmaid when she is heir to her mistress. There are four things little upon the earth, and they are exceeding wise: The ants, a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer; the rock-badgers are but a feeble folk, yet they make their house in the cliff; the locusts have no king, yet they go forth all of them by bands; thou takest hold of the lizard with the hands, yet is she in kings' palaces. There are three things which have a stately step, and four are comely in going: The lion, mighty among beasts, which turneth not away for any; a horse girt in the loins; or the he-goat; and a king, against whom none can rise up.
