The song of songs ,
which is Solomon '
s .
*
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth :
for thy love is better than wine .
*
Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth ,
therefore do the virgins love thee .
*
Draw me ,
we will run after thee :
the king hath brought me into his chambers :
we will be glad and rejoice in thee ,
we will remember thy love more than wine :
the upright love thee .
*
I am black ,
but comely ,
O ye daughters of Jerusalem ,
as the tents of Kedar ,
as the curtains of Solomon .
*
Look not upon me ,
because I am black ,
because the sun hath looked upon me :
my mother '
s children were angry with me ;
they made me the keeper of the vineyards ;
but mine own vineyard have I not kept .

Tell me ,
O thou whom my soul loveth ,
where thou feedest ,
where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon :
for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions ?
*
If thou know not ,

and feed thy kids beside the shepherds '

*
Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels ,
thy neck with chains of gold .
*
We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver .
*
While the king sitteth at his table ,
my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof .
*
A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me ;
he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts .
*
My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of Engedi .
*
Behold ,
thou art fair ,
my love ;
behold ,
thou art fair ;
thou hast doves '
eyes .
*
Behold ,
thou art fair ,
my beloved ,
yea ,
pleasant :
also our bed is green .
*
The beams of our house are cedar ,
and our rafters of fir .
