Neither doesthe dress of the women differ from that of the men, save that thewomen are orderly attired in linen embroidered with purple, and use nosleeves, so that all their arms are bare. The upper part of their breastis withal exposed.
Yet the laws of matrimony are severely observed there; for in the wholeof their manners is aught more praiseworthy than this: for they arealmost the only Barbarians contented with one wife, excepting a very fewamongst them; men of dignity who marry divers wives..., from no wantonnessor lubricity, but courted for the lustre of their family into manyalliances.
To the husband, the wife tenders no dowry; but the husband, to the wife. The parents and relations attend and declare their approbation of thepresents, not presents adapted to feminine pomp and delicacy, nor suchas serve to deck the new married woman; but oxen and horse accoutred, and a shield, with a javelin and sword. By virtue of these gifts, sheis espoused. She too on her part brings her husband some arms.
