Chap. II.
1 I am note the flower of the filde, and the lilie of the valley.
2 noteAs the lilie among the thornes, so is my loue among
the daughters.
3 noteAs the apletree among trees of the woddes,
so is my beloued among the sonnes. Vnder his shadow, whom
I desired, I sate: and his fruite was sweete vnto my throte.
4 He brought me into the wineceller, he hath ordered in me
charitie.
5 Stay me vp with flowers, compasse me about
with apples: because I languish with loue.
6 His lefthand
vnder my head, and his righthand shal embrace me.
7 I adiure
you รด daughters of Ierusalem, by the roes, and the hartes
of the fildes, note that you rayse not, nor make the beloued to
awake, vntil herselfe wil.
8 noteThe voice of my beloued, behold
he cometh leaping in the mountaines, leaping ouer the
little hilles:
9 my beloued is like vnto a roe, and to a fawne
of hartes. Behold he standeth behind our walle, note looking
through the windowes, looking forth by the grates.
10 Behold
my beloued speaketh to me: note Arise, make hast my loue,
my doue, beautiful one, and come.
11 For winter is now past,
the rayne is gone, and departed.
12 The flowers haue appeared
in our land, the time of pruning is come: the voice of the
turtledoue is heard in our land:
13 the figgetree hath brought
-- --
forth her greene figges: the florishing vineyards haue geuen
their sauour. Arise my loue, my beautiful one, & come.
14 My
doue in the holes of the rocke, in the holow places of the wal,
shew me thy face, let thy voice sound in mine eares: for thy
voice is sweete, and thy face comely.
15 noteCatch vs the litle
foxes, that destroy the vineyards: for our vineyard hath florished.
16 noteMy beloued to me, and I to him, who feedeth among
the lilies,
17 til the day breake, and the shadowes decline.
Returne: be like, my beloued, to a roe, and to the fawne of
hartes vpon the mountaynes of Bether.
