for my love. Note here the Ellipsis of the verb "saying", emphasizing what is said rather than the saying of it. This verb has often to be thus supplied. See Gen_26:7. 1Ki_20:34. Psa_2:2; Psa_144:12. Pro_1:21. Isa_5:9; Isa_14:8; Isa_18:2; Isa_22:13; Isa_24:14, Isa_24:15; Isa_28:9. Jer_9:19; Jer_11:19; Jer_50:5. Lam_3:41. Hos_14:8. Act_9:6; Act_10:15; Act_14:22, &c. See note on Psa_144:12.
