    Summary

    All night long on my bed, I looked for the one my heart loves; I looked for him but did not find him. I have searched for him. For the one my heart loves is a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person. His hair waves like the sweet water and black as a raven. His eyes are like eagles by the mountain tops washed in our enemies blood. His lips are like the rose of the valley dipped in myrrh. His body is polished bronze and his legs are pillars of stone. His mouth is like to the sweetest of wines that makes the head spin. Very pleasant has the sight of you been to me: your love to me is wonderful, passing the love of women. This is my friend, son of Jerusalem.

    Summary

    There was a high red wall around the garden. Eve climbed the highest tree, but could not see over the wall.

    Pandora was given two jars. One was full of all that was good and one that was full of all that was evil.

    Xquic was pregnant from picking gourds in a tree. She suspected that she was pregnant with trickster gods who would be a pleasure to raise.

    Chang'e drank from that which she should not drink. She floated away.

    Summary

    "Afoot Sisera fled to the tent of Yael Hever's wife, for there was peace between King Yavin of Hatzor and the House of Hever the Kanite.

    And Yael went to greet Sisera and told him: Here, my lord, come to me; fear not. And he turned into her tent and she covered him with a blanket.

    [...]

    And Yael Hever's wife took a tent's stake and a hammer in her hand and quietly went to him, and she struck the stake through his temple all the way to the ground; and he had been asleep and exhausted, and so died."

    - Judges 4:17-18, 21

    Summary

    "Blessed among women be Yael, wife of Heber the Kanite, blessed among all women in the tent.

    He asked for water, milk she gave; a lord's dish of butter she offered.

    She put her hand to the stake, and her right to the hammer; and she struck him down, she smote Sisera, smote off his head, stricken and pierced through his temple.

    At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down to sleep: at her feet he bowed, he fell, and where he bowed there he was felled dead."

     - Judges 5:24-27

    Summary

    There are three things which are too wonderful for me,
    And four which I do not understand:

    The way of an eagle in the sky,
    The way of a serpent upon a rock,
    The way of a ship in the middle of the sea,
    And the way of a man with a maid.

    -Proverbs, 30:18-19
