8 Our sister is but young and hath no brestes: what shall we do for our sister when she shalbe spoken for? 9 If she be a wall, we shall builde a siluer bulwarke thervpon: yf she be a doore, we shall fasten her with boordes of Cedar tree. 10 I am a wall, and my brestes lyke towres, then was I as one that hath founde fauour in his syght. 11 Solomon hath a vineyarde at BaalHamon: and this vineyarde deliuered he vnto the kepers, that euery one for the fruite therof shoulde geue hym a thousande peeces of siluer. 12 My vineyarde which is myne, is in my syght: thou (O Solomon) must haue a thousande, and the kepers two hundred, which kepe the fruite. 13 Thou that dwellest in the gardens, O let me heare thy voyce, that my companions may hearken to the same. 14 O get thee away my loue, and be as a roe or a young hart vpon the sweete smellyng mountaynes.
