The progress of the procession is described; according to the usual custom the bride and attendants are conducted to the palace. Some for the words -
in raiment of needlework - propose another rendering, “on variegated (or embroidered) cloths” - that is, in the manner of the East, richly wrought tapestry was spread on the ground, on which the bride walked. As the dress had been already mentioned, this seems to be a probable translation.
