I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light: for the light that cometh from her never goeth out.
11
All good things together came to me with her, and innumerable riches in her hands.

14
For she is a treasure unto men that never faileth: which they that use become the friends of God, being commended for the gifts that come from learning.
