in lthe streets and in the squares;
I will seek mhim whom my soul loves.
I sought him, but found him not.
3 nThe watchmen found me
as they went about in the city.
“Have you seen him whom my soul loves?”

when I found ohim whom my soul loves.
I pheld him, and would not let him go
until I had qbrought him into my mother’s house,
and into the chamber of rher who conceived me.
