9. How is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among nashim? How is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us?
10. Dodi (my beloved) is radiant and ruddy, unrivaled by ten thousand.
11. His head is like the purest gold, his hair is wavy and shachor (black) as the raven.
12. His eyes are like yonim (doves) by the streams of mayim, washed with cholov, jewels fitly set.
13. His cheeks are like beds of spices, like sweet flowers; his lips like shoshanim (lilies), dripping sweet scented myrrh.
