Say to wisdom, You are my sister; and call understanding your kinswoman:
I have said to corruption, You are my father: to the worm, You are my mother, and my sister.
Bind them on your fingers, write them on the table of your heart.
That they may keep you from the strange woman, from the stranger which flatters with her words.
O that you were as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! when I should find you without, I would kiss you; yes, I should not be despised.
