MSG ^(1-12)Shapely and graceful your sandaled feet,
  and queenly your movement—
Your limbs are lithe and elegant,
  the work of a master artist.
Your body is a chalice,
  wine-filled.
Your skin is silken and tawny
  like a field of wheat touched by the breeze.
Your breasts are like fawns,
  twins of a gazelle.
Your neck is carved ivory, curved and slender.
  Your eyes are wells of light, deep with mystery.
  Quintessentially feminine!
Your profile turns all heads,
  commanding attention.
The feelings I get when I see the high mountain ranges
  —stirrings of desire, longings for the heights—
Remind me of you,
  and I’m spoiled for anyone else!
Your beauty, within and without, is absolute,
  dear lover, close companion.
You are tall and supple, like the palm tree,
  and your full breasts are like sweet clusters of dates.
I say, “I’m going to climb that palm tree!
  I’m going to caress its fruit!”
Oh yes! Your breasts
  will be clusters of sweet fruit to me,
Your breath clean and cool like fresh mint,
  your tongue and lips like the best wine.
The Woman

7.2 Umbilicus. Id est, infirmitas nostræ mortalitatis fit crater, quando infirmitatem nostram in nobis experti, ut alii per nos recognoscant, laboramus, vel aliquando eleemosynas damus. Tornatilis, id est rotundus et perfectus: qui enim ob id dat potum sitienti, vel calicem divini verbi porrigit erranti, ut a Deo remuneratore vel terrenam sapientiam exspectet: hujus crater non est torno factus, quia opus misericordiæ, quod fecit, non causa suæ fragilitatis erigendæ ad Deum fecit, sed terrenam mercedem requirit. Venter tuus. Venter noster acervus est tritici, cum memores nostræ fragilitatis, fructus bonorum operum, quibus perpetuo reficiamur, in præsenti vita nobis præparamus. Venter tuus. Quamvis sit inferior gradus, tamen triticea refectio erit Deo, quia in imo multi, in superiori pauci, non tamen dicimus in imo, id est, in peccato. Acervus. In imo latior, in summo angustior crescit. Sic et in nostris actionibus, quæ quanto altioris sunt meriti, tanto pauciores sui operarios inveniunt. In inferioribus plures sunt operarii. Multi de possessionibus eleemosynas tribuunt, pauci sunt qui possessiones relinquunt. Possunt in acervo tritici eleemosynæ, quas pauperibus erogamus, intelligi, et bene post craterem membra sponsæ acervo tritici comparantur, ut et potum et panem pauperibus dare signetur, quod et de corporali et spirituali refectione æque potest accipi. In apertis est doctrina poculum, in mysteriis est panis. Vallatus liliis. Cum omnia bona, quæ agimus, gratia videndæ æternæ claritatis gerimus. Et per hoc insidianti inimico aditum nostri cordis circumquaque obstruimus.

7.2 Umbilicus. That it_is, infirmitas nostræ mortalitatis fit crater, when infirmitatem nostram in us experti, as alii through we recognoscant, laboramus, or aliquando eleemosynas damus. Tornatilis, id it_is rotundus and perfectus: who because ob id dat potum sitienti, or calicem divini verbi porrigit erranti, as from Deo remuneratore or terrenam wisdom exspectet: huyus crater not/no it_is torno factus, because opus misericordiæ, that fecit, not/no causa suæ fragilitatis erigendæ to God fecit, but terrenam mercedem requirit. Venter tuus. Venter noster acervus it_is tritici, when/with memores nostræ fragilitatis, fructus bonorum operum, to_whom perpetuo reficiamur, in præsenti vita us præparamus. Venter tuus. Quamvis let_it_be inferior gradus, tamen triticea refectio will_be Deo, because in imo multi, in superiori pauci, not/no tamen dicimus in imo, id it_is, in peccato. Acervus. In imo latior, in summo angustior crescit. So and in nostris actionibus, which quanto altioris are meriti, tanto pauciores sui operarios inveniunt. In inferioribus plures are operarii. Multi about possessionibus eleemosynas tribuunt, pauci are who possessiones relinquunt. Possunt in acervo tritici eleemosynæ, which pauperibus erogamus, intelligi, and bene after craterem members sponsæ acervo tritici comparantur, as and potum and panem pauperibus dare signetur, that and about corporali and spirituali refectione æque potest accipi. In apertis it_is doctrina poculum, in mysteriis it_is panis. Vallatus liliis. Since everything bona, which agimus, gratia videndæ æternæ claritatis gerimus. And through this insidianti inimico aditum our cordis circumquaque obstruimus.
