Perhaps the most peculiar of all the forms of deity in Rome, and probably the only one for whose worship there was devised an efligy peculiarly Italian, was the double-headed Ianus; and yet it was suggestive of the idea so characteristic of the scrupulous spirit of Roman religion, that at the commencement of every act the “spirit of opening” should first be invoked,
while it above all betokened the deep conviction that it was as indispensable to combine the Roman gods in sets as it was necessary that the more personal gods of the
Hellenes
should stand singly and apart.

"
Grave old Homer, who was not given to trifling,
takes pleasure in thinking of the motherly
hand which brushes away the flies from the
face of the
sleeping
babe; he smiles at the
woeful two-year-old who plucks at the gown of
the mother, too busy at first to take her up
and cuddle her, but compelled at last to yield
to the child's persistency; he knows what a
delight it is to a little fellow to have two or
three trees in the garden that he can call his
very own ; he has watched the youngsters mak-
ing sand forts on the seashore, and has laughed
to see the ass munch his way at leisure
through the corn in spite of the blows showered
on him by the feeble bird-scarers.

Sings sorrow up into

There is music in the midst of desolation
And a glory that shines upon our tears.
