¹⁰ Your love is so beautiful, my darling, my bride!
    Your love is better than wine.
The smell of your perfume
    is better than any kind of spice!
¹¹ My bride, your lips drip honey.
    Honey and milk are under your tongue.
Your clothes smell as sweet as perfume.^[a]
12 My darling, my bride,
    you are pure like a locked garden.
You are like a locked pool,
    a closed fountain.
