A royal wedding song: 'My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter… I speak the things which I have made touching the king.' Fairer than the children of men, girding the sword in majesty, riding for truth and meekness and righteousness. 'Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever': Hebrews 1:8-9 reads the address of the Son. The queen stands in gold of Ophir; the king's daughter is all glorious within; virgins follow her into the palace. 'I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations.'
