To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The custom is more expressly alluded to by Ezekiel, (chap, xxiii. Ver. 40, ) where the Holy City is described under the image of an adulterous female: " Ye have sent for men to *' come from far, for whom thou didst w ash thyself, paintedst ' thy eyesy and deckedst thyself with ornaments. " This species of foppery was not exclusively confined to women at least Juvenal has mentioned it amongst the efifeminate practices of certain of the Roman oflRcers: Ule supercilium madida fuHgene tactum Obliqu...i produit acu, pingitque trementes AttoUens oculos. Sect. Ii. Ver. 93.
Allusions of a similar kind may be found, indeed, in a variety of authors, and amongst others, in the writings of some of the Fathers of the Church. But it may be sufficient to notice the expressions of Pliny: tanta est decoris ajffectatio uttingantur oculi quoque. (Nat. Hist. Lib. Xi. Cap. 37. ) The Romans are said, on one occasion, to have set up the image of Venus Barhata, with a comb in her hand and the masculine appurtenances to the countenance but this was expressly designed to commemorate the miraculous interpo- sition of the goddess on a very peculiar emergency, and by no nieans considered as a precedent for imitation, even by the most extravagant of her votaries.
