The Groom

“Like a lily among the thorns,
So is (A)my darling among the [a]young women.”

The Bride

“Like an (B)apple tree among the trees of the forest,
So is my beloved among the [b]young men.
In his shade I took great delight and sat down,
And his (C)fruit was sweet to my [c]taste.
He has (D)brought me to his [d]banquet hall,
And his (E)banner over me is love.
