9
The whoredom of a woman may be known in her haughty looks and eyelids.
10
If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in strictly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty.
11
Watch over an impudent eye, and marvel not if she trespass against thee.
12
She 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.
13
The grace of a wife delighteth her husband, and her discretion will fatten his bones.

A silent and loving woman is a gift of the Lord, and there is nothing so much worth as a mind well instructed.
15
A shamefaced and faithful woman is a double grace, and her continent mind cannot be valued.
16
As the sun when it ariseth in the high heaven, so is the beauty of a good wife in the ordering of her house.
17
As the clear light is upon the holy candlestick, so is the beauty of the face in ripe age.
18
As the golden pillars are upon the sockets of silver, so are the fair feet with a constant heart.
