Excerpt
Let him kiss me with the kiss of his mouth: for Thy breasts are better than wine, Smelling sweet of the best ointments. Thy name is as oil poured out: therefore young maidens have loved Thee. Draw me: we will run after Thee to the odour of Thy ointments. The king hath brought me into his storerooms: we will be glad and rejoice in Thee, remembering Thy breasts more than wine: the righteous love Thee.

✨ To meditate on today
According to the Song of Songs, love is spoken of with perfumes, wine and the eagerness that makes us run toward the beloved; Christian tradition hears in it the love between God and the soul. Today, take a perfume, a flower or a scent you love, breathe it in slowly and let it remind you of the sweetness of this love that draws you.
