She stretches out her hands to the [a]distaff,
And her hands hold the spindle [as she spins wool into thread for clothing].

She opens and extends her hand to the poor,
And she reaches out her filled hands to the needy.

She does not fear the snow for her household,
For all in her household are clothed in [expensive] scarlet [wool].(A)
