RF SOL 6:1 THE CHORUS reply.
Where has your lover gone,
O! Fairest of women?
Where wanders your lover?—
We will seek him with you!
RF SOL 6:2 (They go to seek him, and follow her.)
SHEPHERDESS suddenly exclaims—
My love has gone down to his field,
To the sweet smelling hedge-rows,
To the pastures enclosed, and is gathering lilies.
RF SOL 6:3 SCENE 4.
(The CHORUS and SHEPHERDESS finding the SHEPHERD in the Fields, she runs up to him, exclaiming:)
SHEPHERDESS.
I am my lover's,—my lover is mine!—
He strolls amongst lilies.
RF SOL 6:4 SHEPHERD.
My darling charms me like delight;
Like Jerusalem's prospect;—
I tremble like flags!
RF SOL 6:5 Turn from me your eyes, they o'erwhelm me!
Your locks are like goat flocks that wander in Gilad,
RF SOL 6:6 Your teeth are like ewes that come up from the washing;—
Each with its twin, and none wanting!
RF SOL 6:7 Your cheeks under your veil, are love-apples!—
RF SOL 6:8 There may be sixty Queens, with their seventy attendants,
And maids without number;—
RF SOL 6:9 But my Dove is the one, that is perfect,
She is the one of her mother;
The best of her daughters,
Girls see her and bless her;—
The Queens and attendants all praise her!
RF SOL 6:10 ACT 5. SCENE 1.
(DAVID'S Villa. SOLOMON walking in the Nut Grove of the Villa on the Lebanon, sees the SHEPHERDESS.)
SOLOMON.
Who is this that bursts out like the Dawn?
And fair as the silvery Moon?—
Like the Sun on a fluttering flag?
RF SOL 6:11 SHEPHERDESS replies.
I came down to the Garden of Nuts,
To look at the plants in the vale,
To see if the vines were in bloom,
Or the Love-apples flowered.—
RF SOL 6:12 I knew not, by my life, I should meet,
In my walk with my Prince.
(She turns away and retires towards her duties in nursing DAVID. SOLOMON calls to entreat her to come back.)
RF SOL 6:13 SOLOMON.
Why offended?—Return to me! Return!
Return to me! Return!—Let me see you!
SCENE 2.
(While he calls back the offended SHEPHERDESS, a MAHANAMI DANCING GIRL of the Court pertly demands of SOLOMON:)
DANCING GIRL.
Why should you look at that sulker,
More than at a Mahanami Dancer?
