Their victims will be justified and avenged, for " the souls of the righteous are in the hand of the Lord, and there shall no torment touch them, " whereas the ungodly shall suffer both themselves and in the persons of their descendants; their remorse at the Judgement will be bitter when they cry, " What did our arro- gancy profit us ? " The following of Wisdom is most incumbent on the great, for " mighty men shall be searched out mightily " (vi. 5). Then begins the panegyric of Wisdom. She " i...s radiant and fadeth not away, and easily is she beheld of them that love her. " " She fore- stalleth them that desire to know her, making herself first known. " She came to Solomon in answer to prayer, and she is his chief treasure, and the source of all his knowledge. " She is a breath of the power of God, and a clear effluence of the glory of the Almighty . . . From generation to generation passing into holy souls, she maketh them friends of God and prophets. " She becomes more and more a personal being as the writer proceeds ; she is the bride Solomon desired, being enamoured of her beauty; she alone can be his teacher, prophet, and friend, she who is not weighed down with the corruption of the body, nor subject to mortal weakness.
