In context
9The whoredom of a woman may be known in her haughty looks and eyelids.
10If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, Lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty.
— Sirach 26:11 —
12She will open her mouth, as a thirsty traveler when he hath found a fountain, And drink of every water near her: By every hedge will she sit down, And open her quiver against every arrow.
13The grace of a wife delighteth her husband, And her discretion will fatten his bones.
