250. Chap. 35.] Of the C^istom of wearing Clothes. 281 stowed. He whom the Poles have elected for their king,^ since ours came thence, who ^ is, indeed, one of the greatest princes of this age, never wears any gloves, and in winter or whatever weather can come, never wears other cap abroad than that he wears at home. Whereas I cannot endure to go unbuttoned or untied ; my neighbouring labourers would think themselves in chains, if they were so braced. Varro ^ is of opinion, that when it was ord...ained we should be bare in the presence of the gods and before the magis- trate, it was so ordered rather upon the score of health, and to inure us to the injuries of weather, than upon the account of reverence ; and since we are now talkmg of cold, and Frenchmen used to wear variety of colours (not I myself, for I seldom wear other than black or white, in imitation of my father), let us add another story out of Captain Martin du Bellay, who affirms,'* that in the march to Luxembourg, he saw so great frost, that the munition wine was cut with hatchets and wedges, and delivered out to the soldiers by weight, and that they carried it away in baskets : and Ovid, " Nudaque consistunt, formam servantia testse, Vina ; nee liausta meri, sed data frusta, Libunt." ^ At the mouth of the lake Moeotis, the frosts are so very sliarjD, that in the very same place where Mithridates' lieu- tenant had fought the enemy dry-foot and given them a notable defeat, the summer following he obtained over them a naval victory.
