Holy Scripture
Song of Solomon 1:2
A church father on this verse
“When it says "your breasts are better than wine," it signifies that the commandments of Christ delight the heart like wine. For, as infants suck upon breasts in order to extract some milk, so also all who suck on the law and the gospel obtain the commandments as eternal food.”

3And the smell of thine ointments is better than all spices: Thy name is ointment poured forth; Therefore do the young maidens love thee.
