The Couple Returns and Remembers

Song of Solomon 8:5

Showing verse 5 with surrounding context.

I will leade thee and bring thee into my mothers house: there thou shalt teache me: and I will cause thee to drinke spiced wine, and newe wine of the pomegranate.

His left hand shalbe vnder mine head, and his right hand shall embrace me.

I charge you, O daughters of Ierusale, that you stir not vp, nor waken my loue, vntil she please.

(Who is this that commeth vp out of the wildernesse, leaning vpon her welbeloued?) I raysed thee vp vnder an apple tree: there thy mother conceiued thee: there she coceiued that bare thee.

Set mee as a seale on thine heart, and as a signet vpon thine arme: for loue is strong as death: ielousie is cruel as the graue: the coles thereof are fierie coles, and a vehement flame.

Much water can not quench loue, neither can the floods drowne it: If a man should giue all the substance of his house for loue, they would greatly contemne it.

Wee haue a litle sister, and she hath no breastes: what shall we do for our sister when she shalbe spoken for?
