hi sunt, qui novis opibus ebrii, ut et minima cognoscas, per utendi intemperantiam produnt imperitiam possidendi; nam libenter incedunt armati ad epulas, albati ad exsequias, pelliti ad ecclesias, pullati ad nuptias, castorinati ad litanias.
These are the men who (if I am to tell you even their smallest offences) are intoxicated with unaccustomed wealth and by their intemperate use of it reveal how small is their experience of possession; for they like to march in armour to feasts, in white to funerals, in furs to church, in mourning to weddings, in beaver fur to prayers.
