19For the good-man is not at home, he is gone a long iourney. 20He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. 21With much faire speech she caused him to yeeld, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. 22He goeth after her straightway, as an oxe goeth to the slaughter, or as a foole to the correction of the stocks, 23Til a dart strike through his liuer, as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
