Song of Solomon 3:2-3

2 I will rise now and go about the city,
in ^athe streets and in the squares;
I will seek ^bhim whom my soul loves.
I sought him, but found him not.
3 ^cThe watchmen found me
as they went about in the city.
“Have you seen him whom my soul loves?”

Song of Solomon 5:6-7

6 I opened to my beloved,
but my beloved had turned and gone.
My soul failed me when he ^dspoke.
^eI sought him, but found him not;
^fI called him, but he gave no answer.
7 ^gThe watchmen found me
as they went about in the city;
they beat me, they bruised me,
they took away my veil,
those watchmen of the walls.
