The Folly of Indolence

6 ^aGo to the ant, you sluggard!
Consider her ways and be wise,

7 Which, having no¹ captain,
Overseer or ruler,

8 Provides her¹ supplies in the summer,
And gathers her food in the harvest.

9 ^aHow long will you¹ slumber, O sluggard?
When will you rise from your sleep?

10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep—
