And she sitteth at the door of her house, On a seat in the high places of the city,
To call to them that pass by, Who go right on their ways:
Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither; And as for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,
Stolen waters are sweet, And breadeatenin secret is pleasant.
But he knoweth not that the dead are there; That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
