13 Ha! she hath caught him and kissed him, and with an unblushing countenance, said to him:
14 "I have a peace offering; today I am paying my vows:
15 for this reason I came out to meet thee: earnestly longing to see thee.
16 I have found thee. With cords I have stretched my bed, and decked it with tapestry from Egypt.
17 I have perfumed my bed with saffron, and my house with cinnamon:
18 come, and let us take our fill of love till the morning: come and let us solace ourselves with love.
19 For my husband is not at home, he is gone a long journey;
20 he took in his hand a roll of silver, and will return to his house after many days."
21 So with much fawning discourse she led him astray; and with the flattery of her lips inveigled him.
22 And he is gone after her, attracted by her; as an ox is led to slaughter, or as a dog to be chained: or like a deer pierced through the liver with a dart.
23 And he hasteth like a bird to a snare; not knowing that he is running the risk of his life.
