" VESTAL VIRGIN 65 After some further talk with Apicius about the luxury of women, Tertullian and Proxenes took leave of the amiable specialist, and returned through the city, both the doctor and the deacon feeling their powers of observation mightily sharpened, so far as concerned feminine elegance, by the explana- tions and illustrations which Apicius had submitted to them. Tertullian stopped to look in all the shops where ladies' ornaments and attire were dis- played, and Proxenes from time ...to time, good dea- con as he was, could not refrain from marvelling at the splendor of some beauty or another that passed them, reclining in a litter borne by Cappa- docian slaves. Proxenes even ventured to suggest to Tertullian that it would be a hard thing for the Church to conquer the luxury of the world, and that perhaps the Church would make more prose- lytes by indulgence than by rigorism. But the Carthaginian was so absorbed in his literary reflec- tions, and in the mental trituration of all the ob- servations that he had just made, that he did not combat the backsliding opinions which Proxenes had expressed, but, answering him evasively, hur- ried along, and as soon as they reached the house thanked Proxenes, retired to his room, and resumed his polemical prose with renewed ardor at the point where he had left it a few hours before.
