In context

1 My sonne, hearken vnto my wisedome, and incline thine eare vnto my knowledge.

2 That thou maiest regarde counsell, and thy lippes obserue knowledge.

3 For the lippes of a strange woman drop as an honie combe, and her mouth is more soft then oyle.

4 But the end of her is bitter as wormewood, and sharpe as a two edged sworde.

5 Her feete goe downe to death, and her steps take holde on hell.
