________________________________________________________________________________ / I have stripped off my dress; must I put it on again? I have washed my feet; \ | must I soil them again? | | When my beloved slipped his hand through the latch-hole, my bowels stirred | | within me [my bowels were moved for him (KJV)]. | | When I arose to open for my beloved, my hands dripped with myrrh; the liquid | | myrrh from my fingers ran over the knobs of the bolt. With my own hands I | | opened to my love, but my love had turned away and gone by; my heart sank when | | he turned his back. I sought him but I did not find him, I called him but he | | did not answer. | | The watchmen, going the rounds of the city, met me; they struck me and | | wounded me; the watchmen on the walls took away my cloak. | \ [Song of Solomon 5:3-7 (NEB)] / --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
