An ecstatic love song - Hymn to Nikkal, the Semitic goddess of orchards, c.1500BC, discovered in the ancient Syrian city of Ugarit:
I shall pay a bride price to Her father:
A thousand pieces of silver
Even ten thousand of gold.
I shall send jewels of lapis-lazuli
I shall make Her fields into vineyards
The field of Her love into orchards.
