"Thy eye desireth favour and beauty, but more than these green sown fields."
W kontekście
20Wine and music rejoice the heart, but the love of wisdom is above them both.
21The flute and the psaltery make a sweet melody, but a pleasant tongue is above them both.
22Thy eye desireth favour and beauty, but more than these green sown fields.
23A friend and companion meeting together in season, but above them both is a wife with her husband.
24Brethren are a help in the time of trouble, but mercy shall deliver more than they.
