• Here are words of king Lamuel; here is revelation his mother made known to him for his instruction. (Proverbs 31, 1)

• Wouldst thou give thyself up to the love of women, spend thy all on a king’s undoing? (Proverbs 31, 3)

• Words of the Spokesman,✻ king David’s son, that reigned once at Jerusalem. (Ecclesiastes 1, 1)

• I was a king in my day, I, the Spokesman; Israel my realm, Jerusalem my capital. (Ecclesiastes 1, 12)

• Gold and silver I amassed, revenues of subject king and subject province; men-singers I had and women-singers, and all that man delights in; beakers a many, and jars of wine to fill them.✻ (Ecclesiastes 2, 8)

• Then my mind went back to the thought of wisdom, of ignorance, too, and folly. What (thought I), should mortal king strive to imitate the sovereign power that made him?✻ (Ecclesiastes 2, 12)
