2 BELOVED: Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth, for your love-making is sweeter than wine;2 Let him kiss me with kisses of his mouth!
3 delicate is the fragrance of your perfume, your name is an oil poured out, and that is why girls love you.3 Your name spoken is a spreading perfume-
4 Draw me in your footsteps, let us run. The king has brought me into his rooms; you wil be our joy andour gladness. We shal praise your love more than wine; how right it is to love you.4 Draw me!-

15 -How beautiful you are, my beloved, how beautiful you are! Your eyes are doves.15 Ah, you are beautiful, my beloved,

17 -The beams of our house are cedar trees, its panel ing the cypress.17 the beams of our house are cedars,
