John Trapp on Isaiah 3:6

Ver. 6. When a man ſhall take hold of his brother] This is a further miſchief that Government ſhall go a begging, and ſcarce one be found that ſhall hold it worth having. The Venetians have Magiſtrates called Praegadi, becauſe at firſt men were pray'd to take the office, and not many would accept of it. This was the caſe here: Men are naturally ambitious of Ruledom (the Bramble thinks it a goodly thing to raign over the Trees) but they may ſoon have enough of it, and be forced to cry out as he once did of his Diadem, O vilis pannus! O baſe rag! not worth taking up at a mans feet!

Thou haſt clothing] fit for a Prince, ſome badge of honour, and ſuch Apparrel as may procure thee reſpect: For Hunc homines decorant, quem veſtimenta decorant.

Let this ruin be under thy hand] that is, by an Hypallage, let thy hand be under this ruin, that is, under this deſolate and ruined State, to raiſe it up and repair it.
