In context
26There is a wicked man that hangeth down his head sadly; but inwardly he is full of deceit,
27Casting down his countenance, and making as if he heard not: where he is not known, he will do thee a mischief before thou be aware.
— Sirach 19:28 —
29A man may be known by his look, and one that hath understanding by his countenance, when thou meetest him.
30A man’s attire, and excessive laughter, and gait, shew what he is.
