akjv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, O you whom my soul loves, where you feed, where you make your flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turns aside by the flocks of your companions?

akjv@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

akjv@Songs:2:1 @ I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.

akjv@Songs:2:2 @ As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.

akjv@Songs:2:3 @ As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.

akjv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

akjv@Songs:2:5 @ Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.

akjv@Songs:2:11 @ For, see, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;

akjv@Songs:2:12 @ The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;

akjv@Songs:2:13 @ The fig tree puts forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.

akjv@Songs:2:14 @ O my dove, that are in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see your countenance, let me hear your voice; for sweet is your voice, and your countenance is comely.

akjv@Songs:2:15 @ Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.

akjv@Songs:2:16 @ My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feeds among the lilies.

akjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be you like a roe or a young hart on the mountains of Bether.

akjv@Songs:3:2 @ I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loves: I sought him, but I found him not.

akjv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw you him whom my soul loves?

akjv@Songs:3:10 @ He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the middle thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.

akjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O you daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.

akjv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you are fair, my love; behold, you are fair; you have doves'eyes within your locks: your hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.

akjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from the washing; whereof every one bear twins, and none is barren among them.

akjv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips are like a thread of scarlet, and your speech is comely: your temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within your locks.

akjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck is like the tower of David built for an armory, where on there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.

akjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.

akjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.

akjv@Songs:4:7 @ You are all fair, my love; there is no spot in you.

akjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions'dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

akjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; you have ravished my heart with one of your eyes, with one chain of your neck.

akjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, my sister, my spouse! how much better is your love than wine! and the smell of your ointments than all spices!

akjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under your tongue; and the smell of your garments is like the smell of Lebanon.

akjv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden enclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.

akjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard,

akjv@Songs:4:14 @ Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:

akjv@Songs:4:15 @ A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.

akjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind; and come, you south; blow on my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.

akjv@Songs:5:1 @ I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yes, drink abundantly, O beloved.
