Sirach 6:28 Search for her, and she shall be made known to thee, and when thou hast gotten her, let her not go:

Thee. She will even seek thee first, Wisdom 6:14., Proverbs viii., and Matthew 7:7. --- Gotten. Continence does not here signify being chaste, (Calmet) though this is one of the fruits of wisdom, Wisdom 8:21., and Galatians 5:23. (Haydock)
