Prima pars
Ecce amica mea, columba mea,speciosa mea,formosa mea,

8b  venit saliens in montibus, transiliens colles.

9  Similis est dilecta mea capree hynuloque cervorum. En dilecta mea,formosa mea
stat post parietem nostrum respiciens per fenestras, prospiciens per cancellos.

10  En dilectus meus loquitur mihi: "Surge, amica mea, columba mea, formosa mea, et veni.

11  Iam enim hiems transiit, imber abiit et recessit. Columba mea, veni.

Secunda Pars

12  Flores apparuerunt in terra nostra, tempus putationis advenit; vox turturis audita est in terra nostra,

13  ficus protulit grossos suos, vineae florentes dederunt odorem suum; surge, amica mea, propera, speciosa mea, et veni,

14  columba mea, in foraminibus petrae, in caverna maceriae. Ostende faciem tuam mihi, sonet vox tua in auribus meis; vox enim tua dulcis, et facies tua decora.

standeth behind our wall, looking through the windows, looking through the lattices.
