The Commendation of Wisdom

8 Does not (A)wisdom call,
And understanding [a]raise her voice?
2 On top of (B)the heights beside the way,
Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;
3 Beside the (C)gates, at the opening to the city,
At the entrance of the doors, she cries out:
4 “To you, people, I call,
And my voice is to [b]mankind.

    at the entrance, she cries aloud:(B)
4 “To you, O people, I call out;(C)
    I raise my voice to all mankind.
