SS 3: Here Comes Solomon

Song of Solomon 3:5 "Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires."

Written from the perspective of the young woman, she awakens, wondering where her man is, and she goes out to search for him. She has to ask the watchmen, "Where is Solomon?" This love is so true and important that she offers advice to other young women. Be careful with love, because it can be so overpowering if you aren't ready for it.

Finally, Solomon returns on a carriage (that he made with his own hands, he's so hardcore) from battle (so hardcore). She wants everyone to know that his sword is combat scarred and that he built this carriage himself from the finest materials. The man has a tight whip.
