1I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valleys.
2As the lily among thorns, So is my love among the daughters.
3As 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.
4He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love.
5Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: For I am sick of love.
6His left hand is under my head, And his right hand doth embrace me.
7I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes, and by the hinds of the field, That ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
8The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh Leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
