Love in the Country

1 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince's daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman.

2 Thy navel is like a round goblet, which wanteth not liquor: thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies.

3 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins.

4 Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus.

5 Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.

6 How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!

7 This thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes.

8 I said, I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of the boughs thereof: now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose like apples;

9 And the roof of thy mouth like the best wine for my beloved, that goeth down sweetly, causing the lips of those that are asleep to speak.

10 I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me.

11 Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages.

12 Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth: there will I give thee my loves.

13 The mandrakes give a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved.

Commentary

In Song of Solomon chapter 7, the narrator continues to express his love for his beloved. He begins by praising her beauty, comparing her to a mare among Pharaoh's chariots. He then goes on to describe her body in detail, from her neck to her navel. He also praises her eyes, which he compares to doves. The narrator then shifts his focus to the beloved's love for him. He expresses his joy at her love for him, and compares it to the finest wine. He also expresses his desire to be with her, and to be able to kiss her. The chapter ends with the narrator expressing his desire to be with his beloved forever. He expresses his love for her, and his desire to be with her always. This chapter of Song of Solomon is a beautiful expression of love and devotion. The narrator's love for his beloved is evident in his words, and his desire to be with her forever is clear. This chapter is a reminder of the power of love, and how it can bring two people together.
