Canticum Canticorum, vv.4-5
4:1 quam pulchra es amica mea quam pulchra es; oculi tui columbarum absque eo quod intrinsecus latet; capilli tui sicut greges caprarum (...)
4:2 dentes tui sicut greges tonsarum (...)
4:3 sicut vitta coccinea labia tua, et eloquium tuum dulce (...)
4:9 vulnerasti cor meum, soror, mea sponsa; vulnerasti cor meum (...)
4:11 favus distillans labia tua sponsa mea; mel et lac sub lingua tua (...)
5:8 (...) quia amore langueo.
4:1 Quam pulchra es amica mea, quam pulchra es. Alleluia.
