The version I know says 'she's no mot for a Proddy Scot with her ivory comb and her mantle fine' meaning that a woman so richly and extravagantly arrayed would not be a mate for the plain austerity of a Protestant Scotsman. Historically, Protestant and Catholic have fought fiercely about ornamentation and luxury. |
