VERS. 18.I am my well-beloueds, and my well-beloued is mine, who feedeth among the Lillies.
To whom she answereth, that hee is gone to Ie∣rusalem which is aboue, there to repast with his friends as himselfe had said; and concludeth with an exclamation, that whatsoeuer calamity her own sinne had brought vpon her, yet the affection to her Ioue is firme and constant; and so shee assureth her selfe his is to her, though absent in Heauen. And by this meanes shee nourisheth that holy de∣sire of seeking Christ both in her selfe and others: and together with her temptation findeth, by the goodnesse of GOD, an issue and way to come out of it.
