In context
14 I have peace offerings with me; This day have I payed my vows.
15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, Diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. 16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, With carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. 17 I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. 18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: Let us solace ourselves with loves.
19 For the goodman is not at home, He is gone a long journey: 20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, And will come home at the day appointed.
