First, Provision of food and raiment, whereof the aApostle saith, If any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he is worse then an Infidel. For this, doth SOLOMON commend the virtuous woman, Prou. 31. 15. Rising whilst it is yet night, she giveth meat to her household, and the ordinary to her Maids. And bagain, She feareth not the Snow for her Family: For all her Family is clothed with double clothes. And Pro. 27. 27. he saith not only, Let the milk of the Goats be sufficient for thy food: but further also, for the food of thy Family, and for the sustenance of thy Maids.
