Too slightly timbered for so [loved, armed] {loud a wind},
The First Folio wording is an obvious mistake. No loud wind, or anything like that, has been mentioned. What has been mentioned is "affection," and wood turning to stone, thus becoming "armored." The Second Quarto wording is obviously correct. The First Folio editor must have only guessed at something he could not read on whatever manuscript, or other source, he was checking at the time.
