Τὸ ἔνθεμα εἴρηται παρὰ τὸ ἐντίθεσθαι καὶ ἐνορμᾶσθαι τῷ τραχήλῳ τῆς νύμφης· εἰ δὲ ὡς δύο νεβροὶ δορκάδος ἔμειναν οἱ μαστοὶ τῆς νύμφης, τὸ τί ἐκαλλιώθησαν; οὐκ ἂν ἐῤῥέθη θαυμαστικῶς περὶ τοῦ, ὡς ἔφην, διανοητικοῦ, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ διπλοῦν τοῦ θαύματος, τὴν αὔξησιν τοῦ κάλλους ὑπέδειξεν· ὁποῖον τὸ ἐκαρδίωσας ἐκ δευτέρου ῥηθέν· ἱμάτια δὲ τῆς νύμφης, οἱ ἐνδεδυμένοι Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν, σπλάγχνα οἰκτιρμῶν καὶ χρηστότητα καὶ ταπεινοφροσύνην χείλη δὲ οἱ διδάσκαλοι· καὶ κηρία μέλιτος λόγοι καλοί· εἰργάσαντο δὲ κηρίον καὶ μέλι προφῆται καὶ ἀπόστολοι.
