CANT. VI. 13.
Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee: what will ye see in the Shulamite? as it were the company of two armies.
HYMN 112.
REturn, return, O Shulamite;Return, return to me:Thy God would bring thee back again;Messiah waits for thee.'Twill be the Nations wonder, whenThe Pow'r of this CommandShall knit thy Sinews, giving LifeAnd Vigor to thy hand.This voice, Return, shall rouse thee upFrom dead sleep thou art under,And Spirit thy benummed Limbs:'Tis like the voice of thunder.Wake, Judah, gird thy Harness on:Wake to the Battel now:Wake Israel, joyn thy forces withThy sister Judahs bow.Two Armies, like two floods shall twistTheir streams of fire together,

And drink the sinful Nations up,And make their Glory wither.Proud Babel now shall tumble down,And all her Kings shall fall:Now Antichrist hath run her race:Shall be no more at all.
Another to the Tune of Psal. 124.
REturn, return,O Shulamite, return,Return thou Daugh∣ter of fair Sion hill:O, how I long!My Soul is fainting tillThy God shall bringThee back, and make thee burnWith love to thyMessiah dear, and mourn.Return, return,And make the Nations wonder:Now shalt thou feelThe Pow'r of this command:I'le give it force,Thou shalt it not withstand:I'le spirit that wordWith life, and make it thunder,And wake thee fromThat dead sleep thou art under.
