The Second Day
"The voice of my beloved!"
"My beloved spake"
"Arise, my Love"
"Take us the foxes"
She fings herself upon a divan in an ecstasy of passionate rapture
"By night in my dream I sought him"
But I found him whom my soul loveth"

The Third Day
The King's gift
The Shulamite
The Shulamite is left alone
The Shulamite reflects upon her absent shepherd-lover ...
... and sees him in a vision on the moutainside

The Fifth Day 1)
"Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness?"
2)
"Set me as a seal upon my heart"
"Many waters cannot quench love"
"For love is strong as death"
"We have a little sister"
"Make haste, my beloved"
