Until the day breaks and the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense.

through the tender mercy of our God, with which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;

The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

And so we have a more sure Word of prophecy, which you do well to heed as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

who serve the copy and shadow of the Heavenly things, as Moses was divinely admonished when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, See that you make all things according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain.

For the Law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of those things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.

My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, he stands behind our wall; he is looking through the windows, gazing through the lattice.

Shulamite: Make haste, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.
