The Daughters of Jerusalem

11 We will make1 you ornaments of gold
With studs of silver. 

The Shulamite

12 While the king is at his table,
My1 spikenard sends forth its fragrance. 
13 A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me,
That lies all night between my breasts.
14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blooms
In the vineyards of En Gedi.

The Beloved

15 aBehold, you are fair,1 my love!
Behold, you are fair!
You have dove’s eyes.

Song of Solomon 1:13

He shall lie all night betwixt my breasts - Mr. Harmer contends that it is the bundle of myrrh which the bride says shall lie all night betwixt her breasts, to which she compares the bridegroom, his name being as pleasing and refreshing to her mind, as the myrrh or stacte was to her senses, by its continual fragrance.
