Song of Solomon 2:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

2 I am the flower of the field, and the lily of the valleys.

² As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.

³ As the apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow, whom I desired: and his fruit was sweet to my palate.
