 {v.1-5} The daughters of Jerusalem thus celebrate the beauty of the bride. Formerly her words had borne bright witness to the King, but now she herself is a witness to all the comeliness the King had put upon her. It is the witness of life rather than lips, of ways rather than words. She had been with the Beloved in the garden of spices and she comes forth from His presence with the beauty of the King upon her. She is hailed as the daughter of the Prince. The stamp of royalty is upon her, and the grace and majesty of the King's presence surrounds her going. (Canticle 5: The Witness andd Communion of Love by H. Smith)
 Too often our conversation is seasoned with the wit and humor of this world rather than the wisdom and holiness of heaven. But with the bride it was otherwise. She had been in the presence of the King. She had met the Bridegroom and she comes forth with the joy of that meeting - "the dance of two companies." She has been in the hands of "a cunning workman" and she wears the jewels His hands had wrought. The beauty of the King is upon her. (Canticle 5: The Witness andd Communion of Love by H. Smith)
