Thou art beautifull, O my loue, as Tirzah, comely as Ierusalem, terrible as an armie with banners.

Turne away thine eyes from me, for they haue ouercome me: thy haire is a flocke of goates, that appeare from Gilead.

Thy teeth are as a flocke of sheepe which goe vp from the washing, wherof euery one beareth twinnes, and there is not one barren among them.

As a piece of a pomegranat are thy temples within thy lockes.

There are threescore Queenes, and fourescore concubines, and virgins without number.

My doue, my vndefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her: The daughters sawe her, and blessed her; yea the Queenes and the concubins, and they praysed her.

Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, faire as the moone, cleare as the sunne, and terrible as an armie with banners?
