22:006:007 As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.
22:006:008 There are threescore queens, and fourscore
concubines, and
virgins
without number.
22:006:009 My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is
the only one of her
mother,
she is the choice one of her that bare her. The
daughters
saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the
concubines,
and they praised her.
22:006:010 Who is she that looketh forth as the morning,
fair as the
moon,
clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?
22:006:011 I went down into the garden of nuts to
see the fruits of the
valley,
and to see whether the vine flourished and the
pomegranates
budded.
22:006:012 Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like
the chariots of
Amminadib.
22:006:013 Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return,
that we may look
upon
thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite?
As it were the
company
of two armies.
22:007:001 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes,
O prince’s daughter!
the
joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the
hands
of a cunning workman.
22:007:002 Thy navel is like a round goblet, which
wanteth not liquor:
thy
belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies.
22:007:003 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins.
22:007:004 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.
22:007:005 Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and
the hair of thine
head
like purple; the king is held in the galleries.
22:007:006 How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!
22:007:007 This thy stature is like to a palm tree,
and thy breasts to
clusters
of grapes.
22:007:008 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;
22:007:009 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.
22:007:010 I am my beloved’s, and his desire is toward me.
22:007:011 Come, my beloved, let us go forth into
the field; let us lodge
in
the villages.
22:007:012 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.
22:007:013 The mandrakes give a smell, and at our
gates are all manner of
pleasant
fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee,
O
my
beloved.
