Meaning of Pallace
By ALFRED GATTY. (Ecclesfield)
(No. 13. p. 202., and No. 15. p. 233.).—Bishop Horsley seems to throw some light on this point by his note on the 9th verse of the 45th Psalm. The learned prelate says "'Out of the ivory palaces whereby they have made thee glad,'—rather, from 'cabinets of Armenian ivory they have pleasured thee.' From *cabinets* or *wardrobes*, in which the perfumes, or the garments were kept." This meaning of the word, derived from the Hebrew, corroborates the sense given to it in Mr. Halliwell's *Dictionary of Archaic, &c. Words*, viz, a *storehouse*.
