Search and examine, seek and find; And hold her fast, and let her not go.
For afterward thou shalt find her rest; And she (?) shall turn to a delight unto thee.
And her net shall be to thee a strong defence; And her cordage robes of fine gold.
Her yoke (G Upon her) is an ornament (G) of gold; And her bands are thread of purple.
Thou shalt put her on as robes of honour; And crown thyself with her as a crown of beauty.
If thou be desirous, my son, thou mayest become wise; And if thou apply thy heart, thou shalt be prudent.
