Contextual Overview

1 How beautiful are your feet in sandals, prince's daughter! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, The work of the hands of a skillful workman. 2 Your body is like a round goblet, No mixed wine is wanting. Your waist is like a heap of wheat, Set about with lilies. 3 Your two breasts are like two fawns, That are twins of a roe. 4 Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are like the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath-rabbim; Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon which looks toward Damascus. 5 Your head on you is like Carmel, The hair of your head like purple; The king is held captive in its tresses. 6 How beautiful and how pleasant are you, Love, for delights! 7 This, your stature, is like a palm tree, Your breasts like its fruit. 8 I said, "I will climb up into the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit." Let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, The smell of your breath like apples, Beloved 9 Your mouth like the best wine, That goes down smoothly for my beloved, Gliding through the lips of those who are asleep.
