In context

8There are sixty queens, and eighty concubines, And maidens without number.

9My dove, my perfect one is one; She is the only one of her mother; She is the choice of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and the queens will pronounce her blessed, Yea, and the concubines, and they will praise her.

— Song of Solomon 6:10 —

11I went down to the garden of nuts, To look at the fruits of the valley, To see if the vine flowered, If the pomegranates blossomed.

12There I will give thee my breasts: My soul knew it not: It made me as the chariots of Amminadab.
