Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee.
