9. Most beautiful of women,what makes your beloved better than any other beloved?What makes your beloved better than any other belovedthat you make us swear this way?
10. My beloved is dazzling yet ruddy.He stands out among 10,000 men.
11. His head is the finest gold.His hair is wavy, black as a raven.
12. His eyes are set like doves bathing in milk.
13. His cheeks are like a garden of spices,a garden that produces scented herbs.His lips are lilies that drip with myrrh.
14. His hands are disks of gold set with emerald.His chest is a block of ivory covered with sapphires.
