In context

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.

10Who is this that looks forth as the morning, Fair as the moon, choice as the sun, Terrible as armies set in array?

— Song of Solomon 6:11 —

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