עמוד 112 - For she is a breath of the power of God, and a pure emanation of the glory of the Almighty; therefore nothing defiled gains entrance into her. For she is a reflection of eternal light, a spotless mirror of the working of God, and an image of his goodness.
עמוד 103 - They shall not be sought for in the council of the people, and in the assembly they shall not mount on high ; they shall not sit on the seat of the judge, and they shall not understand the covenant of judgement; neither shall they declare instruction and judgement, and where parables are they shall not be found.

For nothing doth God love save him that dwelleth with wisdom. For she is fairer than the sun, and above all the constellations of the stars...
עמוד 110 - Let us fill ourselves with costly wine and perfumes, and let no flower of spring pass us by; let us crown ourselves with rosebuds before they be withered; let none of us go without his share in our proud revelry; everywhere let us leave tokens of our mirth: because this is our portion, and our lot is this.
