looks like a good description of flies that would land on a person's face. No wonder they would be attracted to a face of like disposition.
One other thing kind of stands out [in the verse]. The KJV "dark sentences" and the NIVs "intrigue" are chidot (riddles, puzzles, enigmas). A good example of use is in Judges 14.
