CHAP. IV.
LO fair thou art, my love, lo fair doves eyes in thy locks are: Thy hair as flocks of goats that from mount Gilead do appear. verse 2 Thy teeth are as a smooth shorn flock, which from the washing come, Where every one of them bears twins, of them there's barren none.
Thy lips are as a scarlet thread, and thy speech comely is: Within thy locks thy temples are like a pomegranate piece. verse 4 Thy neck is like to Davids tower built for an armoury▪ ⟨p. 373⟩Where hang a thousand shields, all shields of men of potency.
