3:1-3 describes the feeling of longing that the woman had for the man she loved and it describes her diligently seeking the man loved. 3:4 describes the woman finding the man that she loved and her response to finding him, holding onto him and bringing him to her mother’s house.
Bible scholars do not know for certain whether the events described in 3:1-4 are real events or something that the woman dreamed in a dream or something that the woman imagined. Many Bible scholars think that 3:1-4 describe a dream. If you are using footnotes you may wish to explain this in a footnote or you could indicate in a section header whether you think this is a dream, a real event or something that the woman imagined. You could also use a general section header such as “The woman searches for the man she loves at night and finds him” which does not comment on whether this was a dream, a real event or something imagined.
