Song of Solomon 8:12 Context
10I am a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found fauour. 11Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon, hee let out the vineyard vnto keepers: euery one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand pieces of siluer. 12My vineyard which is mine, is before me: thou (O Solomon) must haue a thousand, and those that keepe the fruit thereof, two hundred. 13Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice: cause me to heare it. 14¶ Make haste, my beloued, and be thou like to a Roe, or to a yong Hart vpon the mountaines of spices.
