The grim, rough old god was in love with gentle Proserpina. […] Because of this, she had to spend a part of each year ever after with her grim lover in the underworld. […] I am Apollo, the god of beauty and sonar, and I love you, Daphne. […] But Perseus sacrificed to Minerva, and to Venus, the goddess of love. […] Son of Venus, 64; god of love, 57.
