Song of Songs 7:1-5

1How beautifulH3302 are thy feetH6471 with shoesH5275, O prince’sH5081 daughterH1323! the jointsH2542 of thy thighsH3409 are like jewelsH2481, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of a cunning workmanH542.

2Thy navelH8326 is like a roundH5469 gobletH101, which wantethH2637 not liquorH4197: thy bellyH990 is like an heapH6194 of wheatH2406 set aboutH5473 with liliesH7799.1

3Thy twoH8147 breastsH7699 are like twoH8147 youngH6082 roesH6646 that are twinsH8380.

4Thy neckH6677 is as a towerH4026 of ivoryH8127; thine eyesH5869 like the fishpoolsH1295 in HeshbonH2809, by the gateH8179 of Bath–rabbimH1337: thy noseH639 is as the towerH4026 of LebanonH3844 which lookethH6822 towardH6440 DamascusH1834.

5Thine headH7218 upon thee is like CarmelH3760, and the hairH1803 of thine headH7218 like purpleH713; the kingH4428 is heldH631 in the galleriesH7298.23
