Poem
He who finds a wife has found a good thing. This is why I came forth to meet you, diligently to seek your face, and now I have found you- and my heart is still rejoicing. I will rejoice with you, my wife. I have remembered the covenant of our God, and because of you I have found favor in His eyes to drink waters, fresh waters, out of my own cistern, out of my own well, and my fountain shall be blessed. I will be ravished with your love always. I will lie down with you only and share the warmth of your body, for you are virtuous. You are my crown. I will have joy in you all the days of my life. So, love me and know me as I know and love you. Your name is like an expensive perfume that is poured forth, like the fragrance upon your garments to delight my soul. As i gaze upon your figure, I see that you are perfect and unique. How beautiful you are, fairest among women; majestic as the troops with banners, there is no flaw in you. Only you are pleasant to me, my love, pleasing with all your delights. Behind the veil and the locks of your hair, you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes. They overwhelm me, the eyes of a dove, beautiful like the pools of Heshbon, and your nose is as the tower of Lebanon that looks toward Damascus. Your cheeks are like rows of rubies and beds of sweet flowers and spices. Your lips are like scarlet ribbons dripping sweet smelling myrrh. They drip like the honeycomb, so kiss my body softly with the kisses of your mouth, for your love is better than wine.
