Unchecked Copy BoxSng 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, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:2 - I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:3 - I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:4 - My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:5 - I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:6 - I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:7 - The watchmen that went about the city found me, they smote me, they wounded me; the keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:8 - I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:9 - What is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among women? what is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us?

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:12 - His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:13 - His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:14 - His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:15 - His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:16 - His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
