And come, wind of the south;
Make my ^(A)garden breathe out fragrance,
Let its ^[b]spices ^[c]be wafted abroad.
May ^(B)my beloved come into his garden
And eat its ^(C)choice fruits!”

The Torment of Separation

5 “^[a]I have ^(A)come into my garden, ^(B)my sister, my bride;
I have gathered my ^(C)myrrh along with my balsam.
I have eaten my honeycomb ^[b]and my ^(D)honey;
I have ^(E)drunk my wine ^[c]and my milk.
Eat, ^(F)friends;
Drink and ^[d]imbibe deeply, O lovers.”
