Sng Song of Solomon, chapter Song of Solomon, chapter 2
I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. As a lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters. Isa 53:2; Jer 33:15As an apple-tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. Under its shadow I delighted to sit, and its fruit was sweet to my taste. Psa 91:1He hath brought me to the banqueting-house, and his banner over me is love. Psa 36:8'Stay ye me with dainties, refresh me with apples; for I am love-sick.' Let his left hand be under my head, and his right hand embrace me. Sng 8:3'I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles, and by the hinds of the field, that ye awaken not, nor stir up love, until it please.' Sng 3:5; Sng 8:4Hark! my beloved! behold, he cometh, leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills. My beloved is like a gazelle or a young hart; behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh in through the windows, he peereth through the lattice. My beloved spoke, and said unto me: 'Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; The fig-tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines in blossom give forth their fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the cliff, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.' Sng 1:15; Sng 6:9; Sng 8:13'Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vineyards; for our vineyards are in blossom.' Ezk 13:4My beloved is mine, and I am his, that feedeth among the lilies. Sng 6:2; Sng 7:10Until the day breathe, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a gazelle or a young hart upon the mountains of spices.Sng 4:6
