Wantonness in Apparel, reproved. [ 666]
SUrely if it be a shame for a man to wear a paper on his hat at VVestminster-Hall,* 1.1
to shew what he hath done, it is then as repr••achful to wear vain gar∣ments
on ones back; As for a man to be like a fantastical Antick, and a woman like
a Bartholomew baby,* 1.2 what is this but to pull all mens eyes after them, to read in Ca∣pital
letters what they are, vain, foolish, ridiculous▪ It were to be wished that such
back-papers (Apparel in excess) might be as odious in the eyes and hearts of men
and women, as those h••t-papers be at VVestminster and elsewhere; for certainly the
one tellas foul tales as the others do, and could they but speak, would make the
wearers ashamed of their doings, and ridiculous behaviours.
