sol 6:3

  I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies.

sol 6:4

  Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

sol 6:5

  Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.

sol 6:6

  Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.

  There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.

sol 6:9

  My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.

sol 6:13

  Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.
