God has given us this instruction to guide us. In verse 24 Solomon gets down where the rubber meets the road. He is giving his son fatherly advice.

I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
