I am black, but comely, daughters of Jerusalem, As the tents of Kedar, As the curtains of Solomon.

Tell me, thou whom my soul loveth, Where thou feedest [thy flock], Where thou makest it to rest at noon; For why should I be as one veiled Beside the flocks of thy companions?

Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant; Also our bed is green.

The beams of our houses are cedars, Our rafters are cypresses.
