Song of Solomon 5:1-3
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
5 I come to my garden, my sister, my bride;
I gather my myrrh with my spice,
I eat my honeycomb with my honey,
I drink my wine with my milk.
Eat, friends, drink,
and be drunk with love.
Another Dream
2 I slept, but my heart was awake.
Listen! my beloved is knocking.
‘Open to me, my sister, my love,
my dove, my perfect one;
for my head is wet with dew,
my locks with the drops of the night.’
3 I had put off my garment;
how could I put it on again?
I had bathed my feet;
how could I soil them?
