Song of Songs 5:2-7

21I was asleep, but my heart was awake.A voice! My beloved was knocking:Open to me, amy sister, my darling,bMy dove, my perfect one!For my head is full of dew,My clocks with the 2damp of the night.’3I have ataken off my long-sleeved garment,How can I put it on again?I have bwashed my feet,How can I dirty them again?4My beloved sent forth his hand through the opening,And my 1,afeelings moaned for him.5I arose to open to my beloved;And my hands adripped with myrrh,And my fingers with 1liquid myrrh,On the handles of the lock.6I opened to my beloved,But my beloved had aturned away and passed by!My soul went out to him as he bspoke.I csearched for him, but I did not find him;I dcalled him, but he did not answer me.7The awatchmen who go about in the city found me,They struck me and wounded me;The guardsmen of the walls took away my shawl from me.
