wrought by cunning workmās hand Thy nauell like a gobler is which stil with wine doth flowe Thy belly like an heape of wheat about which Lillies growe Thy breasts I may compare like to two litle Roes which follow on their mothers steps when forth to feed she goes Thy necke like to a Tower of costly Iuory fram'd thine eies like Heshbō waters clear by that Bathrabbin nam'd Thy nose like Libanon Tower most seemly to the eie Which towards Damascus citie faire that stately town dothly Thy head like Starlet red thy hatre of purple hue The King in thee doth take delight as in his Lady true How faire art thou my Loue and seemly to the sight The pleasures that abound in thee they are my chiefe delight Thy statute like the Pasiue the call and straightest tree Thy breasts the which do thee worne most like to clusters be Vpon the pleasant palme I said I wil take holde And rest vpon her pleasant boughes I said I wil be bolde Thy breasts are like a bunch of grapes on the most fruitful vine Thy nose in smel like to the fruit of al most pure and fine The roofe of thy sweet mouth like purest wine doth cast Which makes the very aged lagh forgetting sorrowes past I am vnto my Loue a

for thee The eight Chapter OH that thou weart my brother borne that suckt my mothers breast Then sweetly would I kisse thy lippes and by thee take my rest Vnto my mothers closet sure mine own Loue will I bring And be obedient vnto him in euery kind of thing There wil I giue to thee my Loue the daintie spiced wine And pleasant liquor that distils from the Pomgrauet fine With his left hand he shal support and eke my head vpreare And with the right most louingly he shal imbrace his deare Ye daughters of Ierusalem doo not my Loue disease But suffer her to take her rest so long as she shall please Who's that which from the wildernes you commeth frō aboue And in this sort familiarly dooth leane vpon her Loue Vnder a pleasant aple tree from whence like fruit doth spring Thy mother first conceiued thee euen forth

that the furious enemie I feare And that his pride shauld thereby more increase And they should say and foorth this rumor ring that they and not the Lord haue done this thing They are a nation void of counsell quite To vnderstand there doth not one intend But were they wise in it they woule delite And would consider of their latter end Can one or two put thousands to the flight Except the Lord do

seruants shew himselfe most kinde When he shall see their power is past and gone And none kept vp in hold nor left behind when men shal say let vs your goddes behold Where be they now whom ye so much extold Which oft did eat the fatted sacrifice And dranke the wine of the drinke offering Vnto your helpe now let vs see them rise Loe I am God and there is no such thing I kil giue life I wound make whole againe Out of my handes no man can ought retaine I lift my hands on high to heauen aboue Immortall I and onely liue for euer My glittering sword I sharpe for my behooue In righteous iudgment
