I will take hold of its branches.”
Let now your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
The fragrance of your1 breath like apples,
The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved,
1Moving gently the2 lips of sleepers.

Song of Solomon 7:8
I will go up to the palm tree - I will take hold on the boughs of this tree, and climb up by them, in order to gather the clusters of dates at the top. The rubric here in the old MS. interprets this of the cross of Christ.
