The best and most honest translation of Songs I’ve ever read and it was a joy to read

Read this mainly for the design of it. But it's certainly poetic, and delightfully odd, and sensuous.
"By night on my bed I sought him who my soul loveth; I sought him, but I found him not. I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?"
"How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince's daughter!"
