Your projected forms 1 8 There is nothing else 2 1 9 Wisdom is is is better than power and the the wise superior to the the merely strong 1 1 10 If the the wealthy lack Wisdom they are still poor
1 1 1 11 for Wisdom is is more precious than rubies and nothing you
possess compares to Her 3 1 1 12 A camel sooner squeezes through the eye of a a needle
