  The difficult words {shiddah weshiddoth} are variously
  rendered.  The LXX. have [                        ] "male and
  female cup-bearers," with which the Syriac and Arabic and
  Parkhurst agree; Aquila, [                       ] "a cup and
  smaller cups;" Jerome, {scyphos et urceolos, (Vulg.
  {urceos,}) "goblets and pots;" Targum, "warm and cold baths;"
  others, as M. Desvoeux, "male and female captives;" others,
  "cooks and confectioners;" others, " a species of musical
  compositions," derived from Sido, a celebrated Phoenician
  woman, to whom Sanchoniatho attributes the invention of
  music; but others, with more probability, "wives and
  concubines;" and {siddoth} may be in this sense synonymous
  with the Arabic {seedat, domina, conjux} from {sada,} in
  {Conj. V. conjugium inivit.}  Of the former, Solomon had
  three hundred, and of the latter, seven hundred; and if they
  are not mentioned here they are not mentioned at all, which
  is wholly unaccountable.
