HE that feareth God / will do good: & he that keepeth the law shall obtain1 wisdom: and she will come against him as an honourable mother: as a woman ⟨image 408⟩yet a virgin shall she receive him. She shall feed him with the breed of life and understanding: & the water of wholesome wisdom she shall give him to drink. And she shall exalt him among his neighbours: and shall open his mouth even in the thickest of the congregation. And she shall fill him with the spirit of wisdom & understanding / & with the garment of glory shall apparel him. She shall make him rich with joy and gladness and shall inherit him of an everlasting name.
