That lie along the side of mount Gilead.

Whereof every one hath twins,

And thy mouth is comely.
Thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate

A spring shut up, a fountain sealed.

A well of living waters,
And flowing streams from Lebanon.

Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south;
Blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out.
Let my beloved come into his garden,
And eat his precious fruits.
