The contrary whereof is, too curious trimming and decking of our selves, forbidden even unto women: who yet (it may be thought) for the pleasing of their Husbands, might of all other best use it. Therefore the Apostle dsaith, Whose trimming let it not be that outward trimming of frizzling of hair, putting of golden things about them, or putting on of apparel, but the hidden man, &c. Likewise ealso women, let them adorn themselves in modest garments with shamefastness and sobriety, not with frizzling, silver things, or gold, or pearls, or costly apparel. But (which beseemeth women professing godliness) with good works.
