1 Timothy 2:10 Douay-Rheims

But as it becometh women professing godliness, with good works.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

Gems and gold and costly garments and lavish, embroidered flowers of various colors and anything else perishable in nature in no way adorn souls. But the following do: fasts, holy vigils, gentleness, reasonableness, poverty, courage, humility, patience—in a word, disdain for everything passing in this life.
