Now look everyone to himself. Art not thou, and thou, and thou of an haughty carriage? Doth not your behaviour give a strong relish of self-conceitedness?1 There be four principal things that discover pride in the outward carriage. The looks and countenance, the gate and pace, the words and language, the garments and ornaments.

First the looks, when they be big and disdainful,1 such as it is ⟨p. 240⟩easier to observe where they be, then to describe them in words. The colour of red, blew, white may easily be discerned by the eye, the judge of colours: but what words should a man use to describe a red colour so to the fancy? as a man might know it without seeing it; so haughty looks are most easy things to be known when one sees them, but hard to be described, and it is sure, that God would not have made so frequent mention of proud looks, but that the countenance is very apt to bewray the high heart, but because a man doth seldom see his own face, therefore this is a fitter sign to show pride to others, then to discover it to a mans self.
