The Blessings of Wisdom

1 Does not hwisdom call?
Does not iunderstanding raise her voice?
2On jthe heights beside the way,
at the crossroads she takes her stand;
3beside kthe gates in front of lthe town,
at the entrance of the portals she cries aloud:
4“To you, O mmen, I call,
and my cry is to nthe children of man.
5O osimple ones, learn pprudence;
O qfools, learn sense.
