Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;)
Cuando llegaba el turno de cada joven de ir al rey Asuero, ya había pasado doce meses preparándose según los tratamientos de belleza requeridos para las mujeres.

Las jóvenes pasaban un año completo en tratamientos de belleza antes de presentarse al rey.
