“With much seductive speech
She persuades him.
With her smooth talk
She compels him.
Right away he follows her.
He goes like
An ox goes to the slaughter.
He bounds like
A stag toward the trap.
He goes until
An arrow pierces its entrails.
He is like
A bird rushing into a snare.
He does not know
That it will cost him his life.”
Her seductive speech and smooth talk persuades and compels him. The simpleton follows her like an ox going to slaughter. He is like a male deer bounding towards a trap. He would keep going until arrows would pierce him. He was like a bird rushing into a trap. He was completely unaware that this action would cost him his life.
