And when she had put away the king’s clothes that pertained to the queen, she took clothes covenable to (or suitable for) weepings and mourning; and for diverse ointments, she filled (or covered) her head with ashes and drit, or vile power, or dust, and she meeked (or humbled) her body with fastings; and with braiding, or twisting away of her hair, she filled all (the) places, in which she was wont to be glad; [And when she had done down her king’s clothes, she took covenable clothes to weepings and to wailing; and for diverse ointments with ashes and drit she full-filled her head, and her body meeked with fastings; and all places, in the which she was wont to glad, with tearing or pulling of hairs she fulfilled.]
