Song of Solomon 2:6-8

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ O that his left hand were under my head,
    and that his right hand embraced me!
⁷ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
    by the gazelles or the hinds of the field,
that you stir not up nor awaken love
    until it please.

⁸ The voice of my beloved!
    Behold, he comes,
leaping upon the mountains,
    bounding over the hills.
