An interesting break from the usual monotony.
The Song of Solomon is a love song. The two lovers in the song seem deeply in love and quite equal in their relationship (although it is implied at one point that she is one of his many wives & concubines).
There are plenty of references to how great her breasts are (they are even compared favourably to her sister's lack of breasts) and it is mentioned that their large size got her lover's attention.
Also their lovemaking is described in poetic but fairly explicit terms, basically it's biblical erotica, I don't think they teach this book in Sunday school!
