“Sometyme blynd fortune can make loue bee also blynd, And with her on her globe to turne & wheel about, When cold preuailes to put light loues faint feruor out, But ferwent loyall loue may no such fortune fynde.” Footnote 131: Well shown in Whitney’s device to the motto, _Veritas inuicta_,—“Unconquered truth” (p. 166),—where the Spirits of Evil are sitting in “shady cell” to catch the souls of men, while the Great Enemy is striving— “with all his maine and mighte To hide the truthe, and dimme the lawe deuine.” Footnote 132: “LVNAREM _noctu, vt speculum, canis inspicit orbem: Seq. videns, altum credit inesse canem, Et latrat: sed frustra agitur vox irrita ventis, Et peragit cursus surda Diana suos_.” Footnote 133: “_Irrita vaniloquæ quid curas spicula linguæ? Latrantem curatne alta Diana canem._” Footnote 134: See Ovid’s _Metamorphoses_, bk. x. fab. 1, 2. Footnote 135: For pictorial representations of the wonders which Orpheus wrought, see the Plantinian edition of “P. OVIDII NASONIS METAMORPHOSES,” Antwerp, 1591, pp. 238–243. Footnote 136: See Ovid’s _Metamorphoses_, bk. iii. fab. 2; or the Plantinian Devices to Ovid, edition 1591, pp. 85, 87. Footnote 137: In the beautiful Silverdale, on Morecambe Bay, at Lindow Tower, there is the same hospitable assurance over the doorway, “_Homo homini lupus_.” Footnote 138: The device by Gerard de Jode, in the edition of 1579, is a very fine representation of the scene here described. Footnote 139: May we not in one instance illustrate the thought from a poet of the last century?— “Who, who would live, my Nana, just to breathe This idle air, and indolently run, Day after day, the still returning round Of life’s mean offices, and sickly joys? But in the service of mankind to be A guardian god below; still to employ The mind’s brave ardour in heroic aims, Such as may raise us o’er the grovelling herd, And make us shine for ever—that is life.”—_Thomson_ Footnote 140: For other pictorial illustrations of Phaëton’s charioteership and fall, see Plantin’s _Ovid_ (pp. 46–49), and De Passe (16 and 17); also Symeoni’s _Vita, &c., d’Ovidio_ (edition 1559, pp. 32–34). Footnote 141: Ovid’s _Metamorphoses_, by Crispin de Passe (editions 1602 and 1607, p. 10), presents the fable well by a very good device.
