19 The way of the eagle in the heavens, The way of a serpent  on a rock, The way of a ship in the heart of the sea, And the  way of a man in youth.
         
                                
                        20 So -- the way of an adulterous woman, She hath eaten and  hath wiped her mouth, And hath said, `I have not done  iniquity.`
