1:10 Your cheeks are beautiful with ornaments;

The Beloved about Her Lover:
1:12 While the king was at his banqueting table, 4
my nard 5 gave forth its fragrance. 6
1:13 My beloved is like a fragrant pouch of myrrh 7
spending the night 8 between my breasts.
1:14 My beloved is like a cluster of henna blossoms 9
in the vineyards of En-Gedi. 10
The Lover to His Beloved:
1:15 Oh, 11 how beautiful you are, my beloved! 12
Oh, how beautiful you are!
Your eyes 13 are like doves! 14
The Beloved to Her Lover:
1:16 Oh, how handsome you are, my lover! 15
Oh, 16 how delightful 17 you are!
The lush foliage 18 is our canopied bed; 19
1:17 the cedars are the beams of our bedroom chamber;
the pines are the rafters of our bedroom.
