"Velamina etiam mulierum, quæ ad verecundiam designandam eis sunt concessa, sed nunc, per insipientiam earum, in lasciviam et luxuriam excreverunt, it immoderata longitudo superpelliccorum quibus pulverem trahunt, ad moderatum usum, sicut decet verecundiam sexus, per excommunicationis sententiam cohibeantur." Excommunication, indeed! Not even the church could have carried on that war long.
Multa viros nescire decet; pars maxima rerum Offendat, si non interiora tegas, and, as Ovid would seem to suggest, by pigments any tone may be set aglow on a woman's cheek, from enamel the features take any form.
Victor: Nomen habes Coronati; Te tormenta decet pati Pro corona gloriae. Elsewhere the same illustrious hymnologist plays in like manner on the name of St. Vincentius: Qui vincentis habet nomen Ex re probat dignum omen Sui fore nominis; Vincens terra, vincens mari Quidquid potest irrogari Poenae vel formidinis. In the Bull for the canonization of Sta.

But he clasped the blue stone which the troll Decet had given him, and naught could hurt him. On the fourth day he descended into the Dead Valley.
One would almost think the old nursery song of "The beggar whose name was Stout, He cut her petticoats all round about, He cut her petticoats far above her knee, &c.," was written to perpetuate the mandate. Certainly a "Stout beggar was the Papal church." "Consistent with modesty," "sicut decet verecundiam sexus;" nothing can beat that bare-faced hypocrisy.
"'Rapiamus, amici, Occasionem de die, dumque virent genua, Et decet, obducta solvatur fronte senectus!" "Is not that quotation from Horace?" asked the minstrel. "Yes; and I made it insidiously, in order to see if you had not acquired what is called a classical education."
Elined was advanced to the place of Chief Lady of the Household, while Decet was made Head Huntsman, because he loved the forest, and knew the ways of every bird and beast that lived therein. It befell on a time that King Arthur made proclamation of a great joust and tournament which should be holden at Camelot fifteen days after the Feast of the Assumption.
