Question

Some Islamic scholars erroneously claim that a word in this book, commonly translated as “sweet,” actually refers to Muhammad. Nine types of “false peace” are outlined in Saint Teresa of Ávila’s Meditations on this book. This book originated a metaphor for virginity as a hortus conclusus, or (10[1])“enclosed garden,” (10[1])which (10[1])often appears in iconography of Mary along with this book’s metaphor of the neck as an “ivory (10[1])tower.” (10[3])The speaker of this (10[1])book (10[1])mentions the “daughters (10[2])of Jerusalem” in a section (10[2])in which they claim “I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me.” This book (10[1])contains the line “I am the rose of Sharon, (10[3])and the (-5[1])lily of the valleys” (10[1]-5[1])and (10[1])opens (10[2])with (-5[1])the declaration “let him (-5[1])kiss me with the kisses of his mouth.” (10[2]-5[1])For 10 points, (10[1])what love poem (10[2])from the Old Testament (10[2])is sometimes (10[1])named for a wise Biblical (10[1])king? ■END■ (10[4])
