The Book of Ruth, Part 11: Will You Marry Me?
Ruth carries out Naomi's request and finds herself laying at the feet of a sleeping Boaz on the threshing floor. When he awakes, he's startled, but when he realizes who the woman is at his feet, he douses Ruth in compliments and begins to proceed with the actions needed to marry her.

Ruth 3:6 (NET) So she went down to the threshing floor and did everything her mother-in-law had instructed her to do. 7 When Boaz had finished his meal and was feeling satisfied, he lay down to sleep at the far end of the grain heap. Then Ruth crept up quietly, uncovered his legs, and lay down beside him. 8 In the middle of the night he was startled and turned over. Now he saw a woman lying beside him! 9 He said, “Who are you?” She replied, “I am Ruth, your servant. Marry your servant, for you are a guardian of the family interests.” 9 He said, “May you be rewarded by the Lord, my dear! This act of devotion is greater than what you did before. For you have not sought to marry one of the young men, whether rich or poor.
