Song of Solomon 2:5 CPDV

³  Bride to Chorus: Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat beneath the shadow of the one whom I desired, and his fruit was sweet to my palate.

⁴  He brought me into the storeroom of wine. He set charity in order within me.

⁵  Prop me up with flowers. Close me in with apples. For I languish through love.

⁶  His left hand is under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me.

⁷  Groom to Chorus: I bind you by oath, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the does and the stags of the open field, not to disturb or awaken the beloved, even for as long as she wills.
