Song of Songs 2:1
Douay-Rheims
I am the flower of the field, and the lily of the valleys.
George Leo Haydock
I am. The spouse compares herself to a lily, as she is the fairest flower on the bed, (Calmet) or Christ may here speak. (Worthington) (Isaias xi. 1.) (Origen) — He praises himself first, that his spouse may hear her own eulogy. (Menochius)
