The Union of Love

10 (A)I am my beloved’s,
And his (B)desire is for me.
11 Come, my beloved, let’s go out to the [a]country,
Let’s spend the night in the villages.
12 Let’s rise early and go to the vineyards;
Let’s (C)see whether the vine has grown
And its buds have opened,
And whether the pomegranates have bloomed.
There I will give you my love.
13 The (D)mandrakes have given forth fragrance;
And over our doors are all (E)delicious fruits,
New as well as old,
Which I have saved for you, my beloved.
