Song of Solomon 7:11
9 and your mouth like the finest wine. May it flow smoothly to my beloved, gliding gently over lips and teeth.
10 I belong to my beloved, and his desire is for me.
Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside; let us spend the night among the wildflowers.
12 Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vine has budded, if the blossom has opened, if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love.
13 The mandrakes send forth a fragrance, and at our door is every delicacy, new as well as old, that I have treasured up for you, my beloved.
