I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding [me] with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life. |

I sought ª°
in mine heart ª
to give ª°¹
myself ª
unto wine, ª
yet acquainting ª°
mine heart ª
with wisdom; ª
and to lay hold ª°
on folly, ª
till ¹¹
I might see ª°
what ¹
[ was] that ¹
good ª
for the sons ª
of men, ª
which ¹
they should do ª°
under ¹
the heaven ª
all ª
the days ª

I sought ª°
in mine heart ª
to giue ª°¹
my selfe ª
vnto wine, ª
(yet acquainting ª°
mine heart ª
with wisedome) ª
and to lay hold ª°
on folly, ª
till ¹¹
I might see ª°
what ¹
[ was] that ¹

And I examined whether my heart would excite my flesh as [with] wine, (though my heart guided [me] in wisdom,) and [I desired] to lay hold of mirth, until I should see of what kind is the good to the sons of men, which they should do under the sun all the days of their life. |
