RF SOL 4:1 ACT 4. SCENE 1.
(In the Palace Gardens on Lebanon. SOLOMON declaring his love for the SHEPHERDESS in a Serenade.)
SOLOMON sings.
My Love, you are charming! yes, charming!
Your eyes 'neath your veil are like doves!
Your locks like a flock of the goats
That wander on hills of Gilad!
RF SOL 4:2 Your teeth like a flock of shorn sheep,
All perfect without a defect;
RF SOL 4:3 Your ruby lips are like a cord,
And your talk a delight!
Your cheeks are love-apples concealed by your veil,
RF SOL 4:4 Your neck like the tower of David
Built up as a place of defence,—
A thousand of bucklers defend it—
All shields of the bravest of men!
RF SOL 4:5 Your breasts like two fawns
The twins of Gazelles,
That pasture among the fair lilies!
RF SOL 4:6 2.
At the cool of the day when the shadows extend,
Come out, walk with me on the Mountains of Myrrh,
And the Highlands of Spice,
RF SOL 4:7 For, my darling, you everywhere charm,—
In you there is not a defect.
RF SOL 4:8 3.
Go with me from Lebanon, darling,
Go with me from Lebanon!
Go with me to look from the top of Amanah,
From the summit of Shenir and Hermon,
From the homes of the lions,
And hills of the leopards!
RF SOL 4:9 4.
You embolden my heart,
My Darling, my Perfect!
From a glance of your eyes I am bold!
From a bend of your neck
RF SOL 4:10 How delightful to love you,
My Darling, my Perfect!
5.
To love you is more pleasant than wine;
And your sweetness is more than perfumes!
RF SOL 4:11 Your lips distil odours, my Perfect,
Honey and butter are under your tongue.
And the scent of your robes is like Lebanon's breath!—
RF SOL 4:12 But a garden enclosed is my Darling, my Perfect;
A fountain barred up from the sight by a wall!
RF SOL 4:13 Your glance is a peach grove with excellent fruit,
Like the fruit of the Nard!
RF SOL 4:14 Nard, saffron, and cinnamon sticks,
With all Lebanon's Woods,
Myrrh and sandal, with all the best sweets;
RF SOL 4:15 A Spring in a garden;—
A Fount of the Water of Life,
And like Lebanon's brooks!
RF SOL 4:16 SCENE 2.
(The SHEPHERD hid in the garden amongst the rosebushes begins to plead also with the SHEPHERDESS. Sings.)
SHEPHERD.
Arise North wind, or come from the South,
O blow on my Garden, pour out its perfumes!
