Royal bride, listen and pay careful attention. Forget about your people and the home you came from.Let the king be charmed by your beauty. Honor him.

Her gown has gold threads running through it.Dressed in beautiful clothes, she is led to the king. Her virgin companions follow her. They have been brought to be with her.They are led in with joy and gladness. They enter the palace of the king.Your sons will rule just as your father and grandfather did. You will make them princes through the whole land.
