Your (A)teeth are like a flock of shorn ewes
    that have come up from the washing,
all of which bear twins,
    and not one among them has lost its young.
Your lips are like (B)a scarlet thread,
    and your mouth is (C)lovely.
Your (D)cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
    (E)behind your veil.
Your (F)neck is like the tower of David,
    built in (G)rows of stone;[a]
on it (H)hang a thousand shields,
    all of (I)them shields of warriors.
