(... your neck is like an ivory tower; Your eyes are like a pool near the sliding door of Heshbon Patna; ……)。 Obviously, the ivory tower here is only used to describe the bride's beautiful neck. Later, the word was gradually applied to all aspects of social life, mainly referring to "an isolated fantasy, a paradise to escape from real life, and an isolated place".
