¹⁰ How delightful^(A) is your love^(B), my sister, my bride!
    How much more pleasing is your love than wine,^(C)
and the fragrance of your perfume^(D)
    more than any spice!

⁶ How beautiful^(A) you are and how pleasing,
    my love, with your delights!^(B)
7 Your stature is like that of the palm,
    and your breasts^(C) like clusters of fruit.
⁸ I said, “I will climb the palm tree;
    I will take hold of its fruit.”
May your breasts be like clusters of grapes on the vine,
    the fragrance of your breath like apples,^(D)
9     and your mouth like the best wine.

² I would lead you
    and bring you to my mother’s house^(A)—
    she who has taught me.
I would give you spiced wine to drink,
    the nectar of my pomegranates.
