In context
9If she is a wall, let us build upon her silver bulwarks; And if she is a door, let us carve for her cedar panels.
10I am a wall, and my breasts are as towers; I was in their eyes as one that found peace.
— Song of Solomon 8:11 —
12My vineyard, even mine, is before me; Solomon shall have a thousand, And they that keep its fruit two hundred.
13Thou that dwellest in the gardens, The companions hearken to thy voice: Make me hear it.
