behind your veil.
and maidens without number.

fair as the moon, bright as the sun,
terrible as an army with banners?”
to look at the blossoms of the valley,
to see whether the vines had budded,
whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
in a chariot beside my prince.[a]
return, return, that we may look upon you.
¶ Why should you look upon the Shu′lammite,
as upon a dance before two armies?[c]FOOTNOTES
