      Even the ancient Levant had its furries!

      I think that comparing breasts to deer was probably something of a poetic convention then. I believe that there’s something in Solomon along the same lines.

      Yeah.

      Song of Songs 4:5:

      Your breasts are like two fawns,
      like twin fawns of a gazelle
      that browse among the lilies.

      Song of Songs 7:3:

      Your breasts are like two fawns,
      like twin fawns of a gazelle.
