I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
By the [a]roes, or by the hinds of the field,
That ye stir not up, nor awake my love,
Until [b]he please.

Leaping upon the mountains,
Skipping upon the hills.
My beloved is like a [c]roe or a young hart:
Behold, he standeth behind our wall;
He looketh in at the windows;
He glanceth through the lattice.
