16 [a]Awake, O north wind,
And come, wind of the south;
Make my (A)garden breathe out fragrance,
Let its [b]spices flow forth.
May (B)my beloved come into his garden
And eat its (C)choice fruits!”

The Bride Searches for Her Beloved

[c]I have (D)come into my garden, (E)my sister, my bride;
I have picked my (F)myrrh along with my balsam.
I have eaten my honeycomb with my (G)honey;
I have (H)drunk my wine with my milk.
Eat, (I)friends;
Drink and [d]imbibe deeply, O lovers.”
