Whither is thy beloved¹⁷³⁰ gone,¹⁹⁸⁰ O thou fairest³³⁰³ among women?⁸⁰² whither is thy beloved¹⁷³⁰ turned aside?⁶⁴³⁷ that we may seek¹²⁴⁵ him with thee.

My beloved¹⁷³⁰ is gone down³³⁸¹ into his garden,¹⁵⁸⁸ to the beds⁶¹⁷⁰ of spices,¹³¹⁴ to feed⁷⁴⁶² in the gardens,¹⁵⁸⁸ and to gather³⁹⁵⁰ lilies.⁷⁷⁹⁹

I am my beloved's,¹⁷³⁰ and my beloved¹⁷³⁰ is mine: he feedeth⁷⁴⁶² among the lilies.⁷⁷⁹⁹

Thou art beautiful,³³⁰³ O my love,⁷⁴⁷⁴ as Tirzah,⁸⁶⁵⁶ comely⁵⁰⁰⁰ as Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ terrible³⁶⁶ as an army with banners.¹⁷¹³

Turn away⁵⁴³⁷ thine eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ from me, for they¹⁹⁹² have overcome⁷²⁹² me: thy hair⁸¹⁸¹ is as a flock⁵⁷³⁹ of goats⁵⁷⁹⁵ that appear¹⁵⁷⁰ from Gilead.¹⁵⁶⁸

Thy teeth⁸¹²⁷ are as a flock⁵⁷³⁹ of sheep⁷³⁵³ which go up⁵⁹²⁷ from the washing,⁷³⁶⁷ whereof every one beareth twins,⁸³⁸² and there is not one barren⁷⁹⁰⁹ among them.

As a piece⁶⁴⁰⁰ of a pomegranate⁷⁴¹⁶ are thy temples⁷⁵⁴¹ within¹¹⁵⁷ thy locks.⁶⁷⁷⁷

There are threescore⁸³⁴⁶ queens,⁴⁴³⁶ and fourscore⁸⁰⁸⁴ concubines,⁶³⁷⁰ and virgins⁵⁹⁵⁹ without number.⁴⁵⁵⁷

My dove,³¹²³ my undefiled⁸⁵³⁵ is but one;²⁵⁹ she is the only one²⁵⁹ of her mother,⁵¹⁷ she is the choice¹²⁴⁹ one of her that bare³²⁰⁵ her. The daughters¹³²³ saw⁷²⁰⁰ her, and blessed⁸³³ her; yea, the queens⁴⁴³⁶ and the concubines,⁶³⁷⁰ and they praised¹⁹⁸⁴ her.

Who is she that looketh forth⁸²⁵⁹ as the morning,⁷⁸³⁷ fair³³⁰³ as the moon,³⁸⁴² clear¹²⁴⁹ as the sun,²⁵³⁵ and terrible³⁶⁶ as an army with banners?¹⁷¹³

I went down³³⁸¹ into the garden¹⁵⁹⁴ of nuts⁹³ to see⁷²⁰⁰ the fruits³ of the valley,⁵¹⁵⁸ and to see⁷²⁰⁰ whether the vine¹⁶¹² flourished,⁶⁵²⁴ and the pomegranates⁷⁴¹⁶ budded.⁵¹³²

Or ever I was aware,³⁰⁴⁵ my soul⁵³¹⁵ made⁷⁷⁶⁰ me like the chariots⁴⁸¹⁸ of Amminadib.⁵⁰⁸¹

Return,⁷⁷²⁵ return,⁷⁷²⁵ O Shulamite;⁷⁷⁵⁹ return,⁷⁷²⁵ return,⁷⁷²⁵ that we may look²³⁷² upon thee. What will ye see²³⁷² in the Shulamite?⁷⁷⁵⁹ As it were the company⁴²⁴⁶ of two armies.⁴²⁶⁴
