Song of Solomon 5:12-14
American Standard Version
12 His eyes are like doves beside the water-brooks,
Washed with milk, and [a]fitly set.
13 His cheeks are as a bed of [b]spices,
As [c]banks of sweet herbs:
His lips are as lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.
14 His hands are as [d]rings of gold set with [e]beryl:
His body is as [f]ivory work [g]overlaid with sapphires.
