## Song of Solomon 4:12-16 in Context (Verses 9–16 KJV)
 
 [9 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/9) Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, *my* spouse; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck.*
 
 [10 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/10) How fair is thy love, my sister, *my* spouse! how much better is thy love than wine! and the smell of thine ointments than all spices!
 
 [11 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/11) Thy lips, O *my* spouse, drop *as* the honeycomb: honey and milk *are* under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments *is* like the smell of Lebanon.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/12) A garden inclosed *is* my sister, *my* spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed. **
 
 [13 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/13) Thy plants *are* an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard,*
 
 [14 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/14) Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:
 
 [15 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/15) A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/song-of-solomon/4/16) ¶ Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, *that* the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.
