Song of Solomon 5:6-8

⁶I opened to my beloved, But my beloved withdrew — he passed on, My soul went forth when he spake, I sought him, and found him not. I called him, and he answered me not.

⁷The watchmen who go round about the city, Found me, smote me, wounded me, Keepers of the walls lifted up my veil from off me.

⁸I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved — What do ye tell him? that I am sick with love!
