How beautiful are athy feet with shoes, bO prince’s daughter!

The joints of thy thighs are like cjewels,

The work of the hands of da cunning workman.

2Thy navel is like a round egoblet, which wanteth not †liquor:

Thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with flilies.

3gThy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins.

4hThy neck is as a tower of ivory;

Thine eyes like the fishpools in iHeshbon, by the gate of kBath-rabbim:

Thy nose is as lthe tower of mLebanon which looketh toward nDamascus.

5Thine head upon thee is like ||oCarmel,

And pthe hair of thine head like purple;

qThe king is †held in the rgalleries.

6How fair and how spleasant art thou, O love, for tdelights!

7This thy stature is like to a upalm tree,

And thy breasts to xclusters of grapes.
