* the covert.
   There are a great number of conjectures concerning this
   covert; but it is probable that it was either, as Locke
   supposes, a sort of shelter or canopy erected for the people
   on the sabbath when the crowd was too great for the porch to
   contain them; or, as Dr. Geddes supposes, a seat, covered with
   a canopy, placed on an elevation, for the king and his court,
   when they attended public worship.
