Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ but to what shall I compare this generation? they are like children sitting in the markets, and calling out to their fellows, ¹⁷ "if we play a merry tune, you are not for dancing; if we act a mournful part, you are not in the humour." ¹⁸ so John came with fasting and abstinence, and they say, he is mad. ¹⁹ the son of man does not abstain from eating and drinking, and they cry there's a glutton, and a sot, a friend of publicans and sinners: "but wisdom is justified by her children."
