How°
beautiful°°

with shoes,°
O prince's°
daughter!°
the joints°
of thy thighs°
[are] like°
jewels,°
the work°
of the hands°
of a cunning workman.° |
7:2
Thy navel is [as] a turned bowl, not wanting liquor; thy belly is [as] a heap of wheat set about with lilies. |
|
7:2
Thy navel°
[is like] a round°
goblet,°
[which] wanteth°°
not°
liquor:°
thy belly°
[is like] an heap°
of wheat°
set about°°
with lilies.° |
7:3
Thy two breasts are as two twin fawns. |
|
7:3
Thy two°
breasts°
[are] like two°
young°
roes°
[that are] twins.° |

Thy neck is as an ivory tower; thine eyes are as pools in Heshbon{gr.Esebon}, by the gates of the daughter of many: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon{gr.Libanus}, looking toward Damascus. |

7:4
Thy neck°
[is] as a tower°
of ivory;°
thine eyes°
[like] the fishpools°
in Heshbon,°
by°
the gate°
of Bathrabbim:°
thy nose°
[is] as the tower°
of Lebanon°
which looketh°°
toward°
Damascus.° |
7:5
Thy head upon thee is as Carmel, and the curls of thy hair like scarlet; the king is bound in the galleries. |
|
7:5
Thine head°
upon°
thee [is] like Carmel,°
and the hair°
of thine head°
like purple;°
the king°
[is] held°°
in the galleries.° |

How beautiful art thou, and how sweet art thou, [my] love! |
|
7:6
How°
fair°°
and how°
pleasant°°
art thou, O love,°
for delights!° |

This is thy greatness in thy delights: thou wast made like a palm tree, and thy breasts to cluster. |
|
7:7
This°
thy stature°
is like°°
to a palm tree,°
and thy breasts°
to clusters°
[of grapes]. |
7:8
I said, I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of its high boughs: and now shall thy breasts be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose of apples; |
|
7:8
I said,°°
I will go up°°
to the palm tree,°
I will take hold°°
of the boughs°
thereof: now°
also thy breasts°
shall be°
as clusters°
of the vine,°
and the smell°
of thy nose°
like apples;° |
7:9
and thy throat as good wine, going well with my kinsman, suiting my lips and teeth. |
|
7:9
And the roof of thy mouth°
like the best°
wine°
for my beloved,°
that goeth°°
[down] sweetly,°
causing the lips°
of those that are asleep°
to speak.°° |
7:10 ¶
I am my kinsman's, and his desire is toward me. |
|
7:10 ¶
I°
[am] my beloved's,°

Come, my kinsman, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages. |
|
7:11
Come,°°°
my beloved,°
let us go forth°°
into the field;°
let us lodge°°
in the villages.° |
7:12
Let us go early into the vineyards; let us see if the vine has flowered, [if] the blossoms have appeared, if the pomegranates have blossomed; there will I give thee my breasts. |
|
7:12
Let us get up early°°
to the vineyards;°
let us see°°
if°
the vine°
flourish,°°
[whether] the tender grape°
appear,°°°
[and] the pomegranates°
bud forth:°°
there°
will I give°°
thee°
my loves.° |
7:13
The mandrakes have given a smell, and at our doors [are] all kinds of choice fruits, new and old. O my kinsman, I have kept [them] for thee. |
|
7:13
The mandrakes°
give°°
a smell,°
and at°
our gates°
[are] all manner°
of pleasant°
[fruits], new°
and°
old,°
[which] I have laid up°°
