Song of Solomon 7:8-10
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
8 I say I will climb the palm tree
and lay hold of its branches.
O may your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
and the scent of your breath like apples,
9 and your kisses[a] like the best wine
that goes down[b] smoothly,
gliding over lips and teeth.[c]
10 I am my beloved’s,
and his desire is for me.
