Why should he covet more change of Raiment if one Attire were so constant that no use could consume it, no Moth could fret it? What glory were it to be like a Peacock, says Tertullian, (Toties mutando, quoties movendo, ) as often as she moves her self her feathers cast a new beauty and apparition? The Fowls of the Air renew but certain feathers, the Trees do not cast their bark, only the accursed Serpent changeth his skin at appointed revolutions. |

What glory were it to be like a Peacock, Says Tertullian, (Twice mutando, How often movendo,) as often as she moves her self her Feathers cast a new beauty and apparition? The Fowls of the Air renew but certain Feathers, the Trees do not cast their bark, only the accursed Serpent changes his skin At appointed revolutions. |
