CHAP. VI.

1 The Church professeth her faith in Christ. 4 Christ sheweth the graces of the Church, 10 and his loue towards her.

¹ Whither is thy beloued gone? O thou fairest among women, whither is thy beloued turned aside? that we may seeke him with thee.

² My beloued is gone downe into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feede in the gardens, and to gather lillies.

³ I am my beloueds, & my beloued is mine: he feedeth among the lillies.³

⁴ ¶ Thou art beautifull, O my loue, as Tirzah, comely as Ierusalem, terrible as an armie with banners.

⁵ Turne away thine eyes from me, for they haue ouercome me: thy haire is a flocke of goates, that appeare from Gilead.⁵

⁶ Thy teeth are as a flocke of sheepe which goe vp from the washing, wherof euery one beareth twinnes, and there is not one barren among them.

⁷ As a piece of a pomegranat are thy temples within thy lockes.

⁸ There are threescore Queenes, and fourescore concubines, and virgins without number.

⁹ My doue, my vndefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her: The daughters sawe her, and blessed her; yea the Queenes and the concubins, and they praysed her.

¹⁰ ¶ Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, faire as the moone, cleare as the sunne, and terrible as an armie with banners?

¹¹ I went downe into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranats budded.

¹² Or euer I was aware, my soule made me like the chariots of Amminadib.¹²

¹³ Returne, returne, O Shulamite; returne, returne, that we may looke vpon thee: what will yee see in the Shulamite? as it were the company of two armies.¹³
