3. A wise man builds the city wall,
But a wise woman throws it down.
Wise is she? Good you may her call;
She is an owl we should disown!
To woman’s tongue let scope be given
And step by step to harm it leads.
Disorder does not come from Heaven;
’Tis woman’s tongue disorder breeds.
Women and eunuchs! Never came
Lesson or warning words from them!
