    let us go out into the fields
    and lodge in the villages;^[a]
12 let us go out early to the vineyards
    ^(B)and see whether the vines have budded,
whether ^(C)the grape blossoms have opened
    and the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.

    and beside our doors are all choice fruits,
^(E)new as well as old,
    which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.
