Notes

  • Epigraph: "The light of this star surpassed that of all the others;
    its brilliance was ineffable and its novelty was such that
    all those who looked at it were struck with astonishment.
    The sun, moon and the stars formed a choir round this star." - St. Ignatius, Epistle to the Ephesians

    "She wore upon her head a circlet of towers, because the circumference of the Earth is, like a circlet, full of cities, castles and villages. The robe is woven of green plants and hemmed with leafy boughs thus signifying the trees, plants and herbs which cover the earth. She bears a sceptre in her hand ... Lions draw [her chariot]. - Vincenzo Cartari, Le Imagini colla sposizione degli dei degli antichi (describing Ops, the Italian Earth Mother)
