1 Timothy2:9

Verſe 9. In like manner alſo] Men have had their leſſons. Now for women they are taught modeſty in their attire (ſuch as may neither argue wantonnes nor waſtfulnes) ſilence in the Church, ſubjection in the family.

Or coſtly aray] Which yet great ones may wear; but they may not buy it with extortion, and line it with pride: ſith clothes are the enſigns of our ſhame, our fineneſſe is our filthineſſe, and our neatneſſe our naſtineſſe. See Iſaiah 3. where the Prophet inveighes, as if he had viewed the Ladies wardrobes in Jeruſalem[illegible: 1 letter].
