Song of Songs 4-7-9

⁷ You are altogether beautiful, my darling;

there is no flaw in you.

⁸ Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,

    come with me from Lebanon.
Descend from the crest of Amana,
    from the top of Senir, the summit of Hermon,
from the lions’ dens
    and the mountain haunts of leopards.
⁹ You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,   with one jewel of your necklace.

The eyes are so powerful. Over and over in Song of Songs, connection is made through eye to eye contact.
