Song of Solomon 7:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴Your neck is like an ivory tower.
Your eyes are pools in Heshbon,
    by the gate of Bath-rabbim.
Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon,
    overlooking Damascus.
⁵Your head crowns you like Carmel,
    and your flowing locks are like purple;
    a king is held captive in the tresses.^[a]

⁶How fair and pleasant you are,
O loved one, delectable maiden!^[b]
