⁹ My beloved is like ^(A)a gazelle
    or a young stag.
Behold, there he stands
    behind our wall,
gazing through the windows,
    looking through the lattice.

¹⁷ Until ^(A)the day breathes
    and ^(B)the shadows flee,
turn, my beloved, be like ^(C)a gazelle
    or a young stag on cleft mountains.^[a]

^14 (A)Make haste, my beloved,
    and be ^(B)like a gazelle
or a young stag
    on ^(C)the mountains of spices.
