2 "I will rise up, and I will circle through the city. Through the side streets and thoroughfares, I will seek him whom my soul loves. I sought him, and did not find him."	2 αναστησομαι δη και κυκλωσω εν τη πολει εν ταις αγοραις και εν ταις πλατειαις και ζητησω ον ηγαπησεν η ψυχη μου εζητησα αυτον και ουχ ευρον αυτον

4 "When I had passed by them a little, I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not release him, until I would bring him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her who bore me."	4 ως μικρον οτε παρηλθον απ' αυτων εως ου ευρον ον ηγαπησεν η ψυχη μου εκρατησα αυτον και ουκ αφησω αυτον εως ου εισηγαγον αυτον εις οικον μητρος μου και εις ταμιειον της συλλαβουσης με

6 Chorus to Groom: "Who is she, who ascends through the desert, like a staff of smoke from the aromatics of myrrh, and frankincense, and every powder of the perfumer?"	6 τις αυτη η αναβαινουσα απο της ερημου ως στελεχη καπνου τεθυμιαμενη σμυρναν και λιβανον απο παντων κονιορτων μυρεψου
