26. Clothes Do not Make the Man

Asi­nus, pelle leō­nis indu­tus, hom­inēs et bēstiās ter­rē­bat. Sed forte celerius sē movet, et aurēs ēminēbant. Tum in pistrīnum abduc­tus est, ubi poenās petu­lan­ti­ae ded­it.

Per­fect par­tici­ple of induō, clothe.

celerius: too quick­ly.

poenās ded­it: paid the penal­ty, ded­it is from dō, give.
