2. — The worship of fire was introduced originally from the east, where the sun was deemed the most glorious image of the Supreme Being. […] In Sicily her image was represented in a black veil, with the head of a horse, and holding a dove in one hand, and in the other, a dolphin. […] His image was a head without a body, to show that he was not to be moved. […] It was once said to be on fire; but no sooner had her image been removed thence, than the grove became green again. […] His image represents the universe, of which he is the symbol.
