Canticum Canticorum, vv. 4-5
4:1  quam pulchra es amica mea quam pulchra es; oculi tui columbarum absque eo quod intrinsecus latet; capilli tui sicut greges caprarum […]
4:2  dentes tui sicut greges tonsarum […]
4:3  sicut vitta coccinea labia tua, et eloquium tuum dulce […]
4:9  vulnerasti cor meum, soror, mea sponsa; vulnerasti cor meum […]
4:11  favus distillans labia tua sponsa mea; mel et lac sub lingua tua […]
5:8  […] quia amore langueo.
4:1  Quam pulchra es amica mea, quam pulchra es. Alleluia.
