Her feet abide not in her houſe] As the modeſt womans do, Tit. 2.5. who is therefore called domiporta, ſet forth by the ſnail, which carries her houſe on her back, and compared to the Vine, that grows by the houſe ſide, Pſal. 128. The Egyptian women ware no ſhooes, that they might the better keep home. Of the Italian women, it is ſaid, that they are Magpyes at the door, Heylins Geog.
