nec enim contenta decore ingenito externam mentitur femina formam ac, velut artificis Domini manus inperfectum os dederit, quod adhuc res exigat aut hyacinthis pingere sutilibus redimitae frontis in arce, colla vel ignitis sincera incingere sertis, auribus aut gravidis virides suspendere bacas, nectitur et nitidis concharum calculus albens crinibus aureolisque riget coma texta catenis.
For woman, not content with her natural grace, puts on a false and adventitious beauty, and as if the hand of the Lord who made her had given her a face that was unfinished, so that she must needs further embellish it with sapphires mounted on a circlet round her brow to crown it, or surround her chaste neck with strings of glowing gems, or hang a weight of green jewels from her ears, she even fastens the little white stones from sea-shells in her hair to brighten it, and her braided tresses are held in place with bands of gold.
