A creaking bow, a burning flame,
Tide on the ebb, new ice, a coiled snake,
Sons of a king, an ailing calf, a witch's flattery.
No man should be such a fool as to trust these things.
No man should trust the word of a woman. The hearts of women were turned on a whirling wheel.
To love a fickle woman is like setting out over ice on a three year old colt or sailing a ship without a rudder.
