The barren womb,
The earth that is not satisfied with water—
And the fire never says, “Enough!”
And scorns obedience to his mother,
The ravens of the valley will pick it out,
And the young eagles will eat it.
The way of a serpent on a rock,
The way of a ship in the1 midst of the sea,
And the way of a man with a virgin.
She eats and wipes her mouth,
And says, “I have done no wickedness.”

Another enigma. The four things of Proverbs 30:16 agreed in the common point of insatiableness; the four now mentioned agree in this, that they leave no trace behind them.

The way of a man with a maid - The act of sin leaves no outward mark upon the sinners.
