Proverbs31:21

21 She is not afraid of the snow for her houshold: for all her houshold are cloathed with scarlet .

Or of any injuries of the weather.

She hath provided enough, not only for their necessity and defence against cold and other inconveniences, which is here supposed, but also for their delight and ornament; so that not only her self, and Husband, and Children, but some of the better rank of her servants wear scarlet, which was more cheap and familiar in those times and Countries than now it is with us. Or, as it is rendred in our margent, and by divers others, are cloathed with double garments, which is necessary and customary in cold seasons.

Marginal references: Or, double garments.
