Who is this that comes up all white, leaning on her kinsman? I raised you up under an apple tree; there your mother brought you forth; there she that bore you brought you forth.

Our sister is little, and has no breasts; what shall we do for our sister, in the day wherein she shall be spoken for?

If she is a wall, let us build upon her silver bulwarks; and if she is a door, let us carve for her cedar panels.

My vineyard, even mine, is before me; Solomon [shall have] a thousand, and they that keep its fruit two hundred.

Away, my kinsman, and be like a doe or a fawn on the mountains of spices.
