 2:1 ¶ I x589 [am] the rose 2261 of Sharon, 8289 [and] the lily 7799 of the valleys. 6010

 2:2 As the lily 7799 among x996 thorns, 2336 so x3651 [is] my love 7474 among x996 the daughters. 1323

 2:3 As the apple tree 8598 among the trees 6086 of the wood, 3293 so x3651 [is] my beloved 1730 among x996 the sons. 1121 I sat y3427 z8804 down x3427 under his shadow 6738 with great delight, 2530 z8765 and his fruit 6529 [was] sweet 4966 to my taste. 2441

 2:4 He brought 935 z8689 me to x413 the banqueting 3196 house, 1004 and his banner 1714 over x5921 me [was] love. 160

 2:5 Stay 5564 z8761 me with flagons, 809 comfort 7502 z8761 me with apples: 8598 for x3588 I x589 [am] sick 2470 z8802 of love. 160

 2:6 His left hand 8040 [is] under x8478 my head, 7218 and his right hand 3225 doth embrace 2263 z8762 me.

 2:7 I charge 7650 z8689 you, O ye daughters 1323 of Jerusalem, 3389 by the roes, 6643 and 176 by the hinds 355 of the field, 7704 that ye stir not up, 5782 z8686 x518 nor x518 awake 5782 z8787 x853 [my] love, 160 till he please. 2654 z8799 x7945

 2:8 ¶ The voice 6963 of my beloved! 1730 behold, x2009 he x2088 cometh 935 z8802 leaping 1801 z8764 upon x5921 the mountains, 2022 skipping 7092 z8764 upon x5921 the hills. 1389

 2:9 My beloved 1730 is like 1819 z8802 a roe 6643 or x176 a young 6082 hart: 354 behold, x2009 he x2088 standeth 5975 z8802 behind 310 our wall, 3796 he looketh forth 7688 z8688 at x4480 the windows, 2474 shewing y6692 z8688 himself x6692 through x4480 the lattice. 2762

 2:10 My beloved 1730 spake, 6030 z8804 and said 559 z8804 unto me, Rise up, 6965 z8798 my love, 7474 my fair one, 3303 and come away. y3212 z8798 x1980

 2:11 For, x3588 lo, x2009 the winter 5638 is past, 5674 z8804 the rain 1653 is over 2498 z8804 [and] gone; 1980 z8804

 2:12 The flowers 5339 appear 7200 z8738 on the earth; 776 the time 6256 of the singing 2158 [of birds] is come, 5060 z8689 and the voice 6963 of the turtle 8449 is heard 8085 z8738 in our land; 776

 2:13 The fig tree 8384 putteth forth 2590 z8804 her green figs, 6291 and the vines 1612 [with] the tender grape 5563 give 5414 z8804 a [good] smell. 7381 Arise, 6965 z8798 my love, 7474 my fair one, 3303 and come away. y3212 z8798 x1980

 2:14 ¶ O my dove, 3123 [that art] in the clefts 2288 of the rock, 5553 in the secret 5643 [places] of the stairs, 4095 let me see 7200 z8685 x853 thy countenance, 4758 let me hear 8085 z8685 x853 thy voice; 6963 for x3588 sweet 6156 [is] thy voice, 6963 and thy countenance 4758 [is] comely. 5000

 2:15 Take 270 z8798 us the foxes, 7776 the little 6996 foxes, 7776 that spoil 2254 z8764 the vines: 3754 for our vines 3754 [have] tender grapes. 5563

 2:16 ¶ My beloved 1730 [is] mine, and I x589 [am] his: he feedeth 7462 z8802 among the lilies. 7799

 2:17 Until x5704 the day 3117 x7945 break, 6315 z8799 and the shadows 6752 flee away, 5127 z8804 turn, 5437 z8798 my beloved, 1730 and be thou like 1819 z8798 a roe 6643 or x176 a young 6082 hart 354 upon x5921 the mountains 2022 of Bether. 1336
