Song of Solomon 2:12-16

‘The blossoms have already appeared in the land; The time has arrived for pruning the vines, And the voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land.

‘The fig tree has ripened its fruit, And the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance. Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, And come along!’ ”The Groom

“My dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the hiding place of the mountain pathway, Let me see how you look, Let me hear your voice; For your voice is pleasant, And you look delightful.”The Chorus

“Catch the foxes for us, The little foxes that are ruining the vineyards, While our vineyards are in blossom.”The Bride

“My beloved is mine, and I am his; He pastures his flock among the lilies.
