Holy Scripture
Proverbs 7:21
A church father on this verse
“With a provocative movement of a prostitute, with a disrupted gait through delights, with wandering eyes, and with playful darting of her eyelids, she captures the precious souls of young men (for the eye of a prostitute is a snare of a sinner), and with doubtful perception, she accosts anyone passing by in the corner…”

21So with much converse she prevailed on him to go astray, And with the snares of her lips she forced him from the right path.

In context
19For my husband is not at home, But is gone on a long journey,
20Having taken in his hand a bundle of money: After many days he will return to his house.
— Proverbs 7:21 —
22And he followed her, being gently led on, And that as an ox is led to the slaughter, And as a dog to bonds, Or as a hart shot in the liver with an arrow:
23And he hastens as a bird into a snare, Not knowing that he is running for his life.
