Song of Solomon 5:5

3 I have taken off my robe;
How can I¹ put it on again?
I have washed my feet;
How can I defile them?

4 My beloved put his hand
By the¹ latch of the door,
And my heart yearned for him.

5 I arose to open for my beloved,
And my hands dripped with myrrh,
My fingers with liquid myrrh,
On the handles of the lock.

6 I opened for my¹ beloved,
But my beloved had turned away and was gone.
My heart leaped up when he spoke.
^aI sought him, but I could not find him;
I called him, but he gave me no answer.

7 ^aThe watchmen who went about the city found me.
They struck me, they wounded me;
The keepers of the walls
Took my veil away from me.
