27 The king of thine heart shalt thou call him, and also the lord of thy life. But when thou speakest concerning thy knight of love, then spell thou out the letters of it; verily, there be room for misconception hereabouts.
28 ¶ There are three things which are too terrible for me, yea, four which I know not:
29 The way of a lioness with her cub; the way of a dog with his bone; the way of a miser with his gold; and the way of a maid with her man.
30 And whosoever shall meddle with any of these, he will rue it the length of his days. Neither shall any man feel compassion towards him, for he is condemned of his own foolishness.
CHAPTER XV.
1 Concerning the children of Israel. 4 Certain of them go up unto the host. 9 Proper men are chosen. 16 Jericho is captured by a stratagem. 17 An husbandman entertaineth guests. 22 A certain young man taketh unto himself a wife. 35 His sufferings.
Now there was much perturbation of spirit amongst the children of Israel because the fliers of Hu, they did come unto the city of Lon.
2 And some of the tribes did hasten to get them underneath the earth; and some of them did make a great exodus from the city, and they did pass over unto the shores of the sea.
3 Wherefore the people were in doubt concerning what it was, and some said, Verily, it is the exodus that but repeateth itself. But others made answer unto them, saying, Nay, brother, rather is it the Passover that happeneth again.
