c11.9
The king introduced into his land exotic fashions of all kinds. Before his time with the single exception of the king, men kept their hair loose. They wore no head-dress or ear ornaments. If anybody transgressed the custom, he incurred the displeasure of the king. But when some of Harsha's ministers clothed themselves in brilliant garments he felt so pleased that he asked his female attendants to swing lights around them.
