- For at the window of my house I looked out through my lattice,
- And I saw among the naive, And discerned among the youths A young man lacking sense,
- Passing through the street near her corner; And he takes the way to her house,
- In the twilight, in the evening, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.
- And behold, a woman comes to meet him, Dressed as a harlot and cunning of heart.

- 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.
