referreth

And when he saith that it was "in the east" he referreth to her purity and her beauty.

And the "closedness" of which he speaketh referreth to her virginity and her body.

And when he saith, "more than all the habitations of Israel" and "her gates" [he referreth to] the silence of her mouth, and the purity of her lips, and the praise which goeth forth from her mouth, like honey which floweth from her lips, and the purity of her virginity which was without spot or blemish or impurity before she brought forth; and after she had brought forth she was pure and holy, and so shall it be, even as it was, unto all eternity.

David saith, "They have pierced for me my hands and My feet"; now this referreth clearly to the nails of His hands and His feet.
