Song of Solomon 7:7-9
Revised Standard Version
7 You are stately[a] as a palm tree,
and your breasts are like its clusters.
8 I say I will climb the palm tree
and lay hold of its branches.
Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
and the scent of your breath like apples,
9 and your kisses[b] like the best wine
that goes down[c] smoothly,
gliding over lips and teeth.[d]
