THE MUSICIANS. / Rise up, my love, my fair one, / Rise up, and come away, / For lo! the winter is past, / The rain is over and gone, / The flowers appear on the earth, / The time of the singing of birds is come, / And the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.
THE BRIDEGROOM. / Sweetly the minstrels sing the Song of Songs! / My heart runs forward with it, and I say: / Oh set me as a seal upon thine heart, / And set me as a seal upon thine arm; / For love is strong as life, and strong as death, / And cruel as the grave is jealousy!
