The next thing insisted on is his
cheeks. Verse
13, “His cheeks are as a bed of spices; as sweet flowers,” or
“towers of perfumes” [marginal reading], or well-grown flowers. There are
three things evidently pointed at in these words:— 1. A sweet
savour, as from spices, and flowers, and towers
of perfume; 2. Beauty and order, as spices set in
rows or beds, as the words import; 3. Eminency in that
word, as sweet or well-grown, great flowers.
