Holy Scripture
Song of Solomon 1:15
A church father on this verse
“But this beauty of the "cheeks," that is of modesty and chastity, is compared to "turtledoves." They say that the nature of turtledoves is of such a sort that neither the male woos more than one female nor the female puts up with more than one male, so that if it should happen that one is cut off and the other survive…”
