John Trapp on Proverbs 31:29

Verſ. 29. Many daughters have done vertuouſly] By the benefit of a better nature, or civil education, or for praiſe of men, or for a quiet life: ſure it is, that all unſanctified Women, though never ſo well qualified, have failed, both quoad fontem, & quoad finem, for want of faith for the principle, and Gods glory the aym of their vertuous actions. And therefore though they bee ſuo genere, praiſe-worthy, yet they are farre ſhort of this gracious Matron. The civil life without faith is but a beautiful abomination, a ſmoother way to hell. Melius eſt pallens aurum quam fulgens aurichalcum, Bern. better is pale gold than glittering copper. Say the world what it will, a dram of holineſs is worth a pound of good nature. Preferre that before this (in the choyce of a Wife eſpecially) as yee would doe a piece of gold for weight, rather than for workmanſhip, for value, than for elegancy, like that French coyn in the Hiſtorian, in qua plus formaequam ponderis, wherein there was more neatneſs than weightineſs. Of carnal women, though never ſo witty, well-ſpoken, and well-deeded too, we may ſay, as the Civil Law doth of thoſe mixt beaſts, Elephants and Cammels, operam praeſtant, natura fera eſt, they doe the work of tame Creatures, but they have the nature of wild ones.

But thou excelleſt them all] As the only Paragon of the world, the Female glory, the wonder of Women-kind.
