In context

12My sister, my spouse is a garden enclosed; A garden enclosed, a fountain sealed.

13Thy shoots are a garden of pomegranates, with the fruit of choice berries; Camphor, with spikenard:

— Song of Solomon 4:14 —

15A fountain of a garden, And a well of water springing and gurgling from Lebanon.

16Awake, O north wind; and come, O south; And blow through my garden, and let my spices flow out.
