<<The name of HERA, the Queen of the gods, admits a variety
of mutually exclusive etymologies; A.J. van Windekens, offers
"young cow, heifer", which is consonant with HERA's common
epithet βοώπις (boôpis, *COW-EYED* ). HERA was especially
worshipped, as "Argive HERA" , at her sanctuary that stood
between the former Mycenaean city-states of Argos &
Mycenae, where the festivals in her honor called
Heraia were celebrated. "The three cities I love best,
"the *OX-EYED* Queen of Heaven declares (Iliad, book iv)
"are Argos, Sparta and Mycenae of the broad streets."

his sacrifice & resurrection. Like him, the vines must be cut back;
also like him, the grapes are torn from the vines (their womb) &
crushed so that their blood runs out. Finally, the result of this
reduction to Prima Materia (Prime Matter) is transformed into
a more perfect form by an alchemical process, fermentation.

"At once it struck me what quality went to form
a man of achievement, especially in literature,

—I mean negative capability, that is, when a man is
capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries, doubts,
without any irritable reaching after fact and reason."

In the Middle Ages in Europe, anagrams became popular. However,
the principal activity of anagrammatists in the Middle Ages
was in forming anagrams on religious texts. For example:
.
. *QUID EST VERITAS* ?
. [Pilate's words to Jesus, "What is truth?"]
. =
. *EST QUI VIR ADEST* !
. [Jesus' possible reply, "It is the man before you!"] >>

. That his tomb may lack nothing, his most faithful wife
. Is HERE, his companion in life, now his companion in death.

Soldier: My noble general, Timon is dead;
. Entomb'd upon the VERy hem o' the sea;
. And on his grave-stone this insculpture, which
. With wax I brought away, whose soft impression
. Interprets for my poor ignorance.
ALCIBIADES: [Reads the epitaph] ' *HERE LIES* a
. wretched corse, of wretched soul bereft:
. *SEEK NOT MY NAME* : a plague consume you wicked
. caitiffs left!
. *HERE LIE* I, Timon; who, alive, all living men did hate:
. *PASS BY* and curse thy fill, but pass and stay
. not *HERE* thy gait.'
. These well express in thee thy latter spirits:
. Though thou abhorr'dst in us our human griefs,
. Scorn'dst our brain's flow and those our
. droplets which
. From niggard nature fall, yet rich conceit
. Taught thee to make vast Neptune weep for aye
. On thy *LOW GRAVE* , on faults forgiven. Dead
. Is noble Timon: of whose memory
. HEREafter more. Bring me into your city,
. And I will use the olive with my sword,
. Make war breed peace, make peace stint war, make each
. Prescribe to other as each other's leech.
. Let our drums strike.
