Excerpt
My beloved is white and ruddy, Pre-eminent above ten thousand. His head is as the most fine gold, His locks are curled, And black as a raven. His eyes are like doves Beside the water-brooks; Washed with milk, And fitly set. His cheeks are as a bed of spices, As banks of sweet herbs; His lips are as lilies, Dropping with flowing myrrh.
