5:16. His mouth—His Word. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”

This is my Beloved—This is the One I love supremely.
And this is my Friend—“I've found a Friend, O such a Friend!”

O thou fairest among women—O most spiritually-minded amongst us.
