The third Part of the Chapter follows in these three verses, 12. 13. 14. In it, the Bride expresseth how refreshful Christ was to her, and how she did solace her self in him: This she holds forth, not only in the sweet and warm title she gives him; But further in these three things, 1. She declares the comfortableness of the fellowship she had with him, vers. 12. 2. By two comparisons she illustrates it, in the beginning of the 13. and 14. vers. 3. She sets forth the warmness of her own affections to him in the end of vers. 13.
