“To me, my love, you are like
My [favorite] mare among the chariots of Pharaoh.

“Your cheeks are lovely with ornaments,
Your neck with strings of jewels.”

(The Chorus)

“We will make for you chains and ornaments of gold,
[Studded] with beads of silver.”

(The Shulammite Bride)

“While the king was at his table,
My perfume (Solomon) sent forth [his] fragrance [surrounding me].

“My beloved is to me like a pouch of myrrh
Which lies all night between my breasts.
14 
“My beloved is to me a cluster of henna flowers
In the [fragrant] vineyards of [a]Engedi.”
