Song of Songs 5:2-7 - Maiden's Dream: Seeking And Not Finding

² As I was asleep, and my heart waking, I heard the voice of my beloved, when he knocked. Open to me, said he, O my sister, my love, my darling, my dove: for my head is full of dew, and my locks of my hair are full of the night drops.

³ I have put off my coat: how can I do it on again? I have washed my feet, how shall I defile them again? ⁴ But when my love put in his hand at the hole, my heart was moved within me: ⁵ so that I stood up to open unto my beloved. My hands dropped with Myrrh, and the Myrrh ran down my fingers upon the lock. ⁶ Nevertheless when I had opened unto my beloved, he was departed and gone his way. Now like as afore time when he spake, my heart could not longer refrain: Even so now I sought him, but I could not find him: I cried upon him, nevertheless he gave me no answer. ⁷ So the watchmen that went about the city found me, smote me, and wounded me: Yea they that kept the walls, took away my kerchief from me.
