John Trapp on Proverbs 31:25

Verſ. 25. Strength and honour are her clothing] See verſ. 22. She is not of thoſe quae fulgent monilibus, ſordent moribus, that are well-habited, but ill-mannered. No, ſhe is inwardly decked with Spiritual attire, ſuch as rendreth her glorious in the eyes of God and Angels. The joy of the Lord is her ſtrength, ſo that ſhe laugheth at the time to come. This daughter of Sarah, ſo long as ſhee doth well, and hath the E[illegible: 1 letter]ge of a good Conſcience, is not afraid with any amazement (as women are apt to be) 1 Pet. 3.6. Gaudebat Criſpina cum tenebatur, Aug. in Pſal. 137. cum audiebatur, cum damnabatur, cum ducebatur. So did Miſtris Anne Askew, Alice Driver, and many other gracious women, that ſuffered for the Truth in Queen Maries days: Strength and honour was their clothing: and they rejoyced at the time to come: they went as merry to dye, as to dine: and cheared up one another with this, That although they had but a bitter break-faſt, yet they ſhould ſup with Chriſt in joy.
