The Song of Solomon 3:2-8

²I will rise now, and go about in the city, in the market-places, and in the streets, and I will seek him whom my soul loves: I sought him, but I found him not.

³The watchmen who go their rounds in the city found me. I said, Have ye seen him whom my soul loves?

⁴It was as a little while after I parted from them, that I found him whom my soul loves: I held him, and did not let him go, until I brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

⁵I have charged you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the powers and by the virtues of the field, that ye rouse not nor awake my love, until he please.

⁶Who is this that comes up from the wilderness as pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the perfumer?

⁷Behold Solomon's bed; sixty mighty men of the mighty ones of Israel are round about it.

⁸They all hold a sword, being expert in war: every man has his sword upon his thigh because of fear by night.
