The wisdom of the sage Any Dynasty 18 (circa 1539-1295/1292 B.C.E.), represents widely held views in ancient Egypt

Beware of a woman who is a stranger
One not known in her town
Don't stare at her when she goes by
Do not know her carnally
A deep water whose course is unknown
Such is a woman away from her husband
"I am pretty," she tells you daily,
When she has no witnesses,
She is ready to enshare you,
A great deadly crime when it is heard
