5007. 'Saying, Lie with me' means to the end that a joining together might be effected. This is clear from the meaning of 'lying' as a 'lying' together, dealt with above in 4989, 5001, in this case to the end that a joining together might be effected, that is, with the consequent object that one might be joined to the other.
