61Where has your beloved gone,O most beautiful among women?Which way has he turned?We will seek him with you.+
The Bride
2My beloved has gone down to his garden,to the beds of spices,to pasture his flock in the gardensand to gather lilies.+3I belong to my beloved and he belongs to me;he pastures his flock among the lilies.+
The Bridegroom
4You are as beautiful, my darling, as Tirzah,as lovely as Jerusalem,as majestic as troops with banners.+5Turn your eyes away from me,for they have overcome me.Your hair is like a flock of goatsstreaming down from Gilead.+6Your teeth are like a flock of sheepcoming up from the washing;each has its twin,and not one of them is lost.+7Your brow behind your veilis like a slice of pomegranate.+8There are sixty queens and eighty concubines,and maidens without number,+9but my dove, my perfect one, is unique,the favorite of the mother who bore her.The maidens see her and call her blessed;the queens and concubines sing her praises.+
The Friends
10Who is this who shines like the dawn,as fair as the moon,as bright as the sun,as majestic as the stars in procession?+

The Friends
