9. My bride, my very own,you have stolen my heart!With one glance from your eyesand the glow of your necklace,you have stolen my heart.
10. Your love is sweeter than wine;the smell of your perfumeis more fragrant than spices.
11. Your lips are a honeycomb;milk and honeyflow from your tongue.Your dress has the aromaof cedar trees from Lebanon.
12. My bride, my very own,you are a garden, a fountainclosed off to all others.
13. Your arms are vines,covered with delicious fruitsand all sorts of spices—henna, nard,
14. saffron,calamus, cinnamon,frankincense, myrrh, and aloes— all the finest spices.
