The Bride Gives Her Love

11 (A)Come, my beloved,
    let us go out into the fields
    and lodge in the villages;[a]
12 let us go out early to the vineyards
    (B)and see whether the vines have budded,
whether (C)the grape blossoms have opened
    and the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 (D)The mandrakes give forth fragrance,
    and beside our doors are all choice fruits,
(E)new as well as old,
    which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.
