To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The " Song of Songs, " wrongly ascribed to Solomon, is nothing else than a collection of love or wedding songs, which, though in a sense voluptuous, yet reflect the most refined and tenderest feelings. At a time when their simplicity was no longer understood, these songs have been allegorically interpreted, and this misunderstanding probably accounts for the presence of this precious THE HEBREW LYRIC 127 collection of true poetry and beauty — which, however, should not be abused by being put in...to the hands of children and the immature — in the Old Testament. The attempt has been made of late — in pursuance of the popular tendency already referred to — to ascribe these songs to a very late date, with- out there being any good reasons for so doing. Many signs point to the fact that the basis of the collection belongs to the earlier period of Israelitic history. No less important is the place given to lamentation for the dead and to thi^enody in general, by the ancient Israelites.
