Strengthen me with raisins, refresh me with apples, for I am faint with love..." "He: ...How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much more pleasing is your love than wine, and the [fragrance] of your perfume more than any spice! Your lips drop sweetness as [the honeycomb], my bride; [milk and honey] are under your tongue.
