the Greeks represented clothed in a clasped garment, her head bare, her
bosom revealed near the heart, holding in the left hand an elm, around
which a vine, filled with grapes, is clinging.
At Rome, she was a young maiden with a white robe, her bosom half bare, her
head adorned with myrtle and pomegranate flowers intermixed. On the border
of her tunic was written "Death and Life,"--on her front "Summer and
Winter."--Her side was opened, and the heart visible, bearing these words,
"Far and near." {250}
