- At the window of my house I looked out through the lattice.
- I saw among the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who lacked judgment.
- He was going down the street near her corner, walking along in the direction of her house
- at twilight, as the day was fading, as the dark of night set in.
- Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.
|
- For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
- And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
- Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
- In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
- And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
