Fourthly, The pomp of a man.
Put man into the greatest gallantness that can be, that causeth some fear in the hearts of men that are carnal: Now in Acts ▪ 25.23. when Bernice and Agrippa came to sit in judgment they came with great pomp as Judges use to do to strike fear into their prisoners: now the word signifies, they come with much phansy.
