Few Versus of Solomon

The Song of Songs, which is Solomon’s.

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth;
for thy love is better than wine.

Because of the savor of thy good ointments, thy name is as ointment poured
forth; therefore do the virgins love thee\

Draw me, we will run after thee: The King hath brought me into his
chambers. We will be glad and rejoice in thee: We will remember
thy love more than wine; The upright love thee.

VERSE 5.

I am black, but comely; O ye daughters of Jerusalem,
as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

VERSE 6.

Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath
looked upon me: My mother’s children were angry with me; they
made me the keeper of the vineyards but mine own vineyard
have I not kept.

VERSE 7.

Tell me, (O thou whom my soul loveth), where thou feedest, where
thou makest thy flocks to rest at noon: For why should I be as one
that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions.

VERSE 8.

If thou know not (O thou fairest among women!) go thy way forth
by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds
tents.

VERSE 9.

I have compared thee, O my love, to a company
of horses in Pharaoh’s chariots.

VERSE 10.

Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.

VERSE 11.

We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.

VERSE 12.

While the King sitteth at his table,
my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.

VERSE 13.

A bundle of myrrh is my well-beloved unto me;
he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.
