5 “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 with my ^(D)honey;
I have ^(E)drunk my wine with my milk.
Eat, ^(F)friends;
Drink and ^[a]drink deeply, lovers.”

² “My beloved has gone down to his ^(A)garden,
To the ^(B)beds of balsam,
To ^(C)pasture his flock in the gardens
And gather ^(D)lilies.
