THE ARGVMENT.
In this Song, Salomon by most sweete and comfortable allegories and parables describeth the perfite
loue of Iesus Christ, the true Salomon and King of peace, and the faithfull soule or his Church, which
he hath sanctified and appointed to be his spouse, holy, chast and without reprehension. So that here is declared
the singular loue of the bridegrome towarde the bride, and his great and excellent benefites, wherewith
he doeth enriche her of his pure bountie and grace without any of her deseruings. Also the earnest affection
of the Church which is inflamed with the loue of Christ, desiring to be more and more ioyned to him
in loue, and not to be forsaken for any spot or blemish that is in her.
The Churches beautie.
