The archaic language is misleading and instead refers to the sublimely beautiful visions of the stars, the Moon, and the approaching dawn from the pitch-black night in which the Milky Way coalesces into a banner carried by the stars. In reality, the woman (or the Bride) is incomparably beautiful, even to these wonders.
