Song of Solomon 1 — GMV

1 The Song of songs, which is Solomon’s. ² Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: ³ And the smell of thine ointments is better than all spices: ⁴ They have drawn thee: ⁵ I am black, but beautiful, ⁶ Look not upon me, because I am dark, ⁷ Tell me, thou whom my soul loves, ⁸ If thou know not thyself, thou fair one among women, ⁹ I have likened thee, my companion, ¹⁰ How are thy cheeks beautiful as those of a dove, ¹¹ We will make thee figures of gold ¹² So long as the king was at table, ¹³ My kinsman is to me a bundle of myrrh; ¹⁴ My kinsman is to me a cluster of camphor ¹⁵ Behold, thou art fair, my companion; ¹⁶ Behold, thou art fair, my kinsman, ¹⁷ The beams of our house are cedars,
