1 Solomon persuades to a sincere and kind familiarity with wisdom.6 In an example of his own experience, he shews,10 the cunning of a harlot;22 and the desperate simplicity of a young wanton.24 He dehorteth from such wickedness.

Now the pupil of the eye being essentially necessary to sight, and easily injured, it is not only, in common with the other parts, deeply entrenched in the skull, ramparted with the forehead and cheek bones, defended by the eyebrows, eyelids, and eyelashes, and placed so as to be best protected by the hands, but, by a wonderful mechanism, is contracted or dilated by the muscular power of the iris, without which an excess of light would cause instant blindness.

The LXX., Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic, concur in this interpretation. The circumstance of the dart, as applied to the deer, is beautiful and proper, which otherwise we are at a loss to dispose of; and this creature, of all others, was the most proper to be noticed on this occasion; for the usual representation which the Egyptians made of a man overthrown by flattery and fair speeches was the picture of a heart captivated and ensnared by the sound of music. the correction.Job 13:27; Jer 20:2; Ac 16:24 a dart.Nu 25:8,9as a bird.1:17; Ec 9:12knoweth.9:18 O.4:1; 5:7; 8:32,33; 1Co 4:14,15; Ga 4:19; 1Jo 2:1 thine.4:14,15; 5:8; 6:25; 23:31-33; Mt 5:28go.5:23; Ps 119:176; Isa 53:6 6:33; Jud 16:21; 2Sa 3:6-8,27; 12:9-11; 1Ki 11:1,2; Ne 13:261Co 10:8; 2Co 12:21; 1Pe 2:11 2:18,19; 5:5; 9:18; Ec 7:26
