15 [a](A)Catch the foxes for us,
The [b]little foxes that are ruining the vineyards,
While our (B)vineyards are in blossom.”

16 [c](C)My beloved is mine, and I am his;
He (D)pastures his flock among the lilies.
17 (E)Until [d]the cool of the day when the shadows flee away,
Turn, my beloved, and be like a (F)gazelle
Or a young stag (G)on the mountains of [e]Bether.”
