In context
9 In the twilight--in the evening of day, In the darkness of night and blackness.
10 And, lo, a woman to meet him--(A harlot's dress, and watchful of heart,
11 Noisy she is, and stubborn, In her house her feet rest not.
12 Now in an out-place, now in broad places, And near every corner she lieth in wait) --
13 And she laid hold on him, and kissed him, She hath hardened her face, and saith to him,
14 `Sacrifices of peace-offerings are by me, To-day I have completed my vows.
15 Therefore I have come forth to meet thee, To seek earnestly thy face, and I find thee.
