Song of Solomon 2:2

2Groom: Like a lily among the thorns, so is my loved one among the daughters.
2:2He uses the feminine form ‘amica’ to speak about her, so this is the groom speaking. +The Church is a flower among the thorns of secular institutions and secular society. The sinless Virgin Mary is like a flower among the thorns of sin in this world.(Conte)
