They are more to be desired then golde, yea then much fine golde: they are also sweeter then hony and the hony combe.

TSK · Proverbs 22:18
Treasury of Scripture Knowledge references in Bishops.
Howe sweete are thy wordes vnto my throte: truely they be sweeter then hony is to my mouth.
I am as glad of thy worde: as he that fyndeth a great bootie.
When wisdome entreth into thine heart, and thy soule deliteth in knowledge:
My sonne marke my wordes, and encline thyne eare vnto my sayinges:
Geue eare, for I wyll speake of great matters, and open my lippes to tell thinges that be right:
The lippes of the ryghteous feede a whole multitude: but fooles shall dye in their owne follie.
Who so is wyse in heart, shalbe called prudent: and the sweetnesse of his lippes encreaseth learnyng.
A worde spoken in due season, is lyke apples of golde in a graued worke of siluer.
For the priestes lippes shall kepe knowledge, and they shall seeke the lawe at his mouth: because he is the messenger of the Lorde of hoastes.
By hym therfore, do we offer sacrifice of laude alwayes to God: that is, the fruite of lippes confessyng his name.
