So
doth the
potter sitting at his work, and turning the wheel about with his feet, who is
alway carefully set at his work, and maketh all his work by number;
The women also with cords about them,
sitting in the ways, burn
bran for
perfume: but if any of them, drawn by some that passeth by, lie with him, she reproacheth her fellow, that she was not thought as worthy as herself, nor her cord broken.
