“Come, let us drink our fill of love until morning;
Let us console and delight ourselves with love.

“For my husband is not at home.
He has gone on a long journey;

²¹ 
With her many persuasions she caused him to yield;
With her flattering lips she seduced him.
²² 
Suddenly he went after her, as an ox goes to the slaughter [not knowing the outcome],
Or as one in stocks going to the correction [to be given] to a fool,
²³ 
Until an arrow pierced his liver [with a mortal wound];
Like a bird fluttering straight into the net,
He did not know that it would cost him his life.
