As a piece of a pomegranate [are] thy temples within thy locks.	There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.	My dove, my undefiled is [but] one; she [is] the [only] one of her mother, she [is] the choice [one] of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; [yea], the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
