The Presbyters and the Asceticks, I believe, changed the Palluim for the Toga in the infancy of the christian world; but all other christians were left undistinguished by their dress.

These were generally clad in the sober manner of their own times.

They observed a medium between costliness and sordidness.

That they had no particular form for their dress beyond that of other grave people, we team from Justin Martyr.

"They affected nothing fantastic, says he, but, living among Greeks and barbarians, they followed the customs of the country, and in clothes, and in diet, and in all other affairs of outward life, they shewed the excellent and admirable constitution of their discipline and conversation." That they discarded superfluities and ornaments we may collect from various authors of those times.
