    Liber Ecclesiasticus

    Sirach

    29

    Sic faber ferrarius sedens juxta incudem, et considerans opus ferri: vapor ignis uret carnes ejus, et in calore fornacis concertatur.

    So doth the smith sitting by the anvil and considering the iron work. The vapour of the fire wasteth his flesh, and he fighteth with the heat of the furnace.

    Sic fabre ferrario sedente juxta incudo, et considera opere fer: vapore igni ure carnes de illo, et in calore de fornace concerta.
