The Gentle and the Delicate

Figuratively: a delicate person. A beautiful soul (עָנֹג implies gentle).

("The man who is tender and very fond of you will have a bad eye on his brother and on the wife of his bosom and on the rest of his children whom he will leave behind" - Words of the power of Nad, and so on: "And as a tender and pleasant hand/ Is a contest of mouth on the shape of my heart/ Is the change of the words of the letter" - H.N. Bialik/ A small letter to me, a letter, and so on: "For there is still much tender and very fondness/ On the wing of the earth And in her lap/ the weaver like sucklings of the breasts/ for the rain in her soul yearns" - H.N. Bialik/ from Summer Poems, and so: "Your dreams have come true...alone, clothed in my own hands,/ the soft and the delightful - the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite" - Shaul Tchernychowski/ The daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite)
