13:14. And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust: and then they agreed together upon a time, when they might find her alone.

13:16. And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves, and were beholding her.
13:17. So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me.
13:18. And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within.
