ll never cease till he hath kindled a fire.

Sir 23:17
All bread is sweet to a whoremonger, he will not leave off
till he die.

Sir 23:18
A man that breaketh wedlock, saying thus in his heart, Who
seeth me? I am compassed about with darkness, the walls cover
me, and no body seeth me; what need I to fear? the most High
will not remember my sins:

Sir 23:19
Such a man only feareth the eyes of men, and knoweth not that
the eyes of the Lord are ten thousand times brighter than the
