Epigraph
“Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
“Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon; for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?
“If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds’ tents.”
THE SONG OF SOLOMON.
