16Euen of thē came they: & they nourished them vp that planted the vineyards from whence the wine commeth. 17These also make garments for men; these bring glory vnto men, and without women cannot men be. 18Yea and if men haue gathered together gold and siluer, or any other goodly thing, doe they not loue a woman, which is comely in fauour and beautie? 19And letting all those things goe, doe they not gape, and euen with open mouth fixe their eyes fast on her; and haue not all men more desire vnto her, then vnto siluer or gold, or any goodly thing whatsoeuer? 20A man leaueth his owne father that brought him vp, and his owne countrie, and cleaueth vnto his wife.
