He

15  dBehold, eyou are beautiful, fmy love;

behold, you are beautiful;

your geyes are doves.

She

16  Behold, you are beautiful, hmy beloved, truly idelightful.

Our couch is green;

17  the beams of our house are jcedar;

our rafters are jpine.

2 I am a rose1 of Sharon,

ka lily of the valleys.

He

2  As a lily among brambles,

so is lmy love among the young women.

She

3  As an apple tree among the trees of the forest,

so is my mbeloved among the young men.

With great delight I sat nin his shadow,

and his ofruit was sweet to my taste.

4  He pbrought me to the banqueting house,2

and his qbanner over me was love.

5  Sustain me with rraisins;

refresh me with apples,

sfor I am sick with love.

6  His tleft hand is under my head,

and his right hand uembraces me!

7  I vadjure you,3 O wdaughters of Jerusalem,

by xthe gazelles or the does of the field,

that you not stir up or awaken love

until it pleases.
