What though the polite man count thy fashion a little odd and too
precise, it is because he knows nothing above that model of goodness
which he hath set himself, and therefore approves of nothing beyond
it: he knows not God, and therefore doth not discern and esteem what
is most like Him. When courtiers come down into the country, the
common home-bred people possibly think their habit strange; but they
care not for that, it is the fashion at court. What need, then, that
Christians should be so tender-foreheaded, as to be put out of
countenance because the world looks on holiness as a singularity? It
is the only fashion in the highest court, yea, of the King of Kings
himself.
