Return to Index.

| # Chapter 7
#### 1 | How beautiful are thy feet in sandals, O prince's daughter! Thy rounded thighs are like jewels, The work of the hands of a skilful workman.
#### 2 | Thy body is like a round goblet, Wherein no mingled wine is wanting: Thy waist is like a heap of wheat Set about with lilies.
#### 3 | Thy two breasts are like two fawns That are twins of a roe.
#### 4 | Thy neck is like the tower of ivory; Thine eyes as the pools in Heshbon, By the gate of Bath-rabbim; Thy nose is like the tower of Lebanon Which looketh toward Damascus.
#### 5 | Thy head upon thee is like Carmel, And the hair of thy head like purple; The king is held captive in the tresses thereof.
#### 6 | How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!
#### 7 | This thy stature is like to a palm-tree, And thy breasts to its clusters.
#### 8 | I said, I will climb up into the palm-tree, I will take hold of the branches thereof: Let thy breasts be as clusters of the vine, And the smell of thy breath like apples,
#### 9 | And thy mouth like the best wine, That goeth down smoothly for my beloved, Gliding through the lips of those that are asleep.
#### 10 | I am my beloved's; And his desire is toward me.
#### 11 | Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; Let us lodge in the villages.
#### 12 | Let us get up early to the vineyards; Let us see whether the vine hath budded, And its blossom is open, And the pomegranates are in flower: There will I give thee my love.
#### 13 | The mandrakes give forth fragrance; And at our doors are all manner of precious fruits, new and old, Which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved.
