CANTICO 3:4

Di poco li avea passati, Ed io trovai colui che l'anima mia ama; Io lo presi, e nol lascerò, Finchè io non l'abbia menato in casa di mia madre, E nella camera di quella che mi ha partorita.

It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
