3 For the lippes of an harlot are a droppinge hony combe, and hir throte is softer then oyle.

4 But at ye last she is as bitter as wormwod, and as sharpe as a two edged swerde.

5 Hir fete go downe vnto death, and hir steppes pearse thorow vnto hell.

6 She regardeth not the path of life, so vnstedfast are hir wayes, that thou canst not knowe them.

7 Heare me therfore (o my sonne) and departe not fro the wordes of my mouth.

8 Kepe thy waye farre from her, and come not nye ye dores of hir house.
