Or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been,\par\tab As infants that never saw light.
{\i Let them be} as a snail which melteth and passeth away,\par\tab {\i Like} the untimely birth of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
If a man beget a hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul be not filled with good, and moreover he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he:
and last of all, as to the {\i child} untimely born, he appeared to me also.
Or with princes that had gold,\par\tab Who filled their houses with silver
There the wicked cease from troubling;\par\tab And there the weary are at rest.
I should have been as though I had not been;\par\tab I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
Before your pots can feel the thorns,\par\tab He will take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
yea, better than them both {\i did I esteem} him that hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.\par
