Ordonnances de France, I, 324, 531. Worms law of 1220. (Riehl, Pfälzer, 246.) Braunschweig law of 1228, that at weddings there should not be over 12 plates nor more than three musicians. (Rehtmeyer, Chron., 466.) Danish sumptuary law of 1269. First law regulating dress in Prussia in 1269. (Voigt, Gesch. von Preussen, V, 97.) On Henry II., see v. Raumer, Hohenstaufen, VI, 585. Some of the earlier restrictions on luxury, such as that of 190 in England and France, against scarlet ermine, etc., may have been related to the religious fervor of the crusades. St. Louis, during the whole period of his crusades wore no articles of luxury.
