Thanks for the reference.
I just now opened up that old book, King James Version, and I
found this:
>From Chapter 31, verse 10:
"Who can find a virtuous
woman? for her price is far above
rubies."
And then from verse 17:
"She girdeth her loins with
strength, and strengtheneth her arms."
Virtuous women have strong arms too. I found out in the case of
one young lady whose virtue I once questioned that she could deliver
a very powerful roundhouse right. She was so quick that I didn't
even see it coming. Knocked me down too! In my questioning of
her virtue I was only making a curious inquiry as to her price.
The Bible explains it all!
As a man who occasionally reads the Bible, and who once tried
to deal with a virtuous woman, I can advise that this is the
wrong question to ask. People who read the Bible more frequently
than I do should already know what the answer to that one is.
