little moons,
3:19. And chains and necklaces, and bracelets, and bonnets,
3:20. And bodkins, and ornaments of the legs, and tablets, and sweet

3:21. And rings, and jewels hanging on the forehead,
3:22. And changes of apparel, and short cloaks, and fine linen, and
crisping pins,
3:23. And lookingglasses, and lawns, and headbands, and fine veils.

a girdle, a cord, and instead of curled hair, baldness, and instead of a
stomacher, haircloth.

in battle.

on the ground.

heat, and for a security and covert from the whirlwind, and from rain.
