Seeker Overlay ON

* What is thy beloved more than another beloved , O thou fairest among women ? what is thy beloved more than another beloved , that thou dost so charge us ? * My beloved is white and ruddy , the chiefest among ten thousand . * His head is as the most fine gold , his locks are bushy , and black as a raven . * His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters , washed with milk , and fitly set mille #th #. * His cheeks are as a bed of spices , as sweet flowers : his lips like lilies , dropping sweet smelling myrrh . * His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl : his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires . * His legs are as pillars of marble , set upon sockets of fine gold : his countenance is as Lebanon , excellent as the cedars . * His mouth is most sweet : yea , he is altogether lovely . This is my beloved , and this is my friend , O daughters of Jerusalem .
