Song of Solomon 1:14

My beloved (darling) is to me like a cluster of henna [beautiful flower]
in the vineyards of Ein Gedi [on the western side of the Dead Sea].
[Henna also appears in Song 4:13. Originally from India, but was probably imported by Solomon and grew in his gardens. It symbolizes an unusual fragrance, is precious, and comes from far away.]
