veiling place
veiling place n. [translating Hebrew ḥuppāh chuppah n. (which is used figuratively in Psalm 19:6 with reference to the daily rising of the sun)] Obsolete rare (apparently) a place or chamber in which a wedding ceremony is held; (perhaps) spec. the area beneath the canopy or chuppah used in Jewish marriage ceremonies (see chuppah n.).The precise sense intended in quot. a1586 is unclear. However, the corresponding passage of the Psalms in the Geneva Bible (1560), which uses ‘chamber’, gives in a marginal note the alternative gloss ‘vaile’. The note continues: ‘The maner was that the bride and bridegrome shuld stand vnder a vaile together, & after come forthe with great solemnitie and reioycing of ye assemblie’, which may suggest Sidney intended a specific reference to the chuppah.
