Puritan Corner - "My Love"

"The title my love is a very kindly and sweet one; and this
makes it lovely, that therein he not only intimates, but appropriates his love to her, allowing her to lay claim thereto as her own. My love, saith he, .... that there can be nothing more cordial and refreshing to believers than Christ's intimating of his love to them, and therefore he has chosen this title for that purpose. The men of this world exceedingly prejudice themselves, that they think not more of this, and study not to be aquainted with it."by JAMES DURHAM (1622-1658)
 Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.
Song of Solomon 2:10
