Wisdom, chapter 7, verse 7, the second part of the verse, reads "Venit in me
spiritus sapientiae. Verse 10 of the same chapter, the third part of the
verse, reads "inextinguilbile est lumen illius." Verse 13 reads "Quam sine
fictione didici, Et sine invidia communico, Et honestatem illius non abscondo."
