Shoes thinly woven of the dolichos fibre ,
May be used to walk on the hoarfrost .
The delicate fingers of a bride ,
May be used in making clothes .
[His bride] puts the waistband to his lower garment and the collar to his upper ,
And he , a wealthy man , wears them .

[His bride] puts the waistband to his lower garment and the collar to his upper ,
And he , a wealthy man , wears them .
Wealthy , he moves about quite at ease ,
And politely he stands aside to the left .
From his girdle hangs his ivory comb-pin .
It is the narrowness of his disposition ,
Which makes him a subject for satire .
