Chapter 108 Chapter Twelve

How Paganuel used Virgil to divination the marriage of Panurge Banu Ri opened the book, and found this poem on the sixteenth line: Nec Deus huns mensa, Dea nec dignata cubili est. ① Paguguai said: "This hexagram is not good for you. The hexagram says your wife is unfaithful, so you should be a turtle. "The goddess who opposes you is Minerva, the virgin who is feared, the goddess of violence and power, the tortoise, the opponent of lovers and adulterers, the enemy of adulterers who are unfaithful to their husbands and give themselves to others. The so-called gods God refers to Jupiter who is in charge of the thunderbolt in the sky. According to the ancient Aetolians, you can see that "Thunderbolt" (the name of the Aetolians for Wu Gang's Thunderbolt) is only her (burning Ajax ?The ship of Orius is an example②) and Jupiter, the father who gave birth to her from the head. No other gods on Mount Olympus are allowed to use lightning strikes, so Minerva and Jupiter special feared by humans.

"Let me tell you one more thing. You can write it down as a deep myth. It is when giants fought against gods. At first, gods did not value such opponents, saying that giants could not stand against their servants. But when they When the giant piled Pelion on Mount Ossa, and Olympus was already staggering and was about to fall on the two mountains, he was surprised. Jupiter hastened to summon the gods and decided that all The gods tried their best to defend themselves. And because they had failed several times in the past due to the hindrance of women in the army, they decided to drive the goddesses out of the heavens and send them to Egypt in the form of weasels, weasels, bats, gophers, or other images. Go to the Nile River valley. Only Minerva was left behind in the name of the god of literature, art and war, and the god of counsel and execution. She was born to be the main god of the army. Goddess of awe."

Panuge said: "God's belly! Can I be Wu Gang as described by the poet? No, I am neither lame nor counterfeit, and I am not a blacksmith like Wu Gang. Although my wife may be the same as him As beautiful as Venus, but never as lewd as she was, and I would not be a turtle like him. That lame fellow was proclaimed a turtle in the presence of the gods. That alone, is completely different from me. "This hexagram means that my wife will be chaste, virtuous, and loyal, and never aggressive, unruly, or stupid, born from the brain like Pallas. And the beautiful Jupiter will never be mine. Rival, he will never dip bread in my soup when we dine together.

"Look at his manners and his fine conduct. He was the most dissolute, the most daring womanizer, as rambunctious as a pig, a sow, if Agathocles of Babylon is right. Brought up on Mount Dictet in Candia; he is more mating than a ram, so it is said that he was nursed by the mother goat Amalthea, and directed at Akai. Long speak! He killed the whole world in one day ① Latin: "He is not worthy to be included in the gods, nor worthy to be in the bed of the goddess. ” See line 63 of the fourth volume of Virgil’s “Pastoral”. ② The ships of Ajax Aurius were burned down by divine fire in the Trojan War.

③ Both Mount Pelion and Mount Ossa are located in Dessalia in ancient Greece. In mythology, the giant once stacked Mount Pelion on Mount Ossa to fight against the heaven. ① Virgil did not talk about Wu Gang, but Servius did. ② Pallas: Another name for Minerva. ③ Agadocles (361-289 BC): tyrant of Syracuse, powerful enemy of the Carthaginians. ④ Kandia: Crete. ① Amartea: The female goat that raised Jupiter in mythology, one of its horns was later the harvest horn. One-third of the world: Europe, including people, animals, mountains, and rivers.Because he behaves like a sheep, the Ammonites painted him as a goat with horns, doing sheep's work.

"However, I know how to deal with this horned fellow. I will not be taken by him for a stupid Amphitreon, a stupid Argus with a hundred eyes, a coward a cowardly Acrisius, a useless Lycus of Thebes, a dreamer Agenor, a distracted Asopus, a hairy-legged Lycaon, a Corytus, the stupid idiot, and an Atlas with a broad back (11). "He can turn into a crane(12), a bull(13), a goat(14), gold at will, or a cuckoo like he seduced his sister Juno; An eagle, a sheep, a dove when it falls in love with the girl Putia who lives in Akia, a fire, a snake, a lice, and even an atom of Epicurus, or a master of theology. The second thought⑤, I promise I can catch him with a hook. Do you know how I will fix him? God's body! Just like Saturn dealt with his father 'Heaven' (Seneca prophesied to me, Lark Tang Xius ⑥ later confirmed), the way Liya dealt with Attis; ⑦ I will cut off all his dicks along his anus, not even a hair left. Let him never become Pope, Because testiculos non habet8."

"Very well, my boy," said Paiguguet, "very well! Turn over again." The second time I turned to this poem: Membra quatit, gelidusque co t formidine sanguis. Banurge said: "No, this refers to me. If she provokes me, I will beat her up like a tiger. Let Martin the stick do his job. If there is no stick, I will not be like Kang King of Lydia. Burroughs eat her alive as he eats his woman, let the devil eat me." "You've got the guts," said Paiguguet. "Come on, even Hercules is no match. No wonder people say that one John is worth two. Of course Hercules alone can't beat two." "

Panurge said, "Am I John?" ② Ammonites: The ancient Syrian nation, said to be the descendants of Lot's son Amon. ③ Amphitryon: The husband of Alcmene in mythology, who was once coaxed by Jupiter. ④ Argus thought he had a hundred eyes and could always see Io, but he was still hypnotized by the music. ⑤ Acrisius: King Argos in mythology, he was worried that he would be beaten to death by his grandson, so he locked his daughter Danai in the tower, and Jupiter turned into golden rain to enter. ⑥ Lycus was killed by the two sons of Antiope and Jupiter for scolding his niece Antiope.

⑦ Agenor: King of Phoenicia in mythology, son of Neptune, father of Erope. ⑧ Asoposs: The mythical river god, whose daughter Müqinna was abducted by Jupiter. ⑨ Lycaon: King of Arcadia in mythology, Jupiter seduced his daughter Callisto and turned him into a wolf. 10 Corytus: The husband of Electra in mythology, Electra had and Jupiter gave birth to Dardanus. ① Jupiter turns into golden rain when he seduces Danai. ② Jupiter turned into an eagle when he tempted Ganymede. ③ Putia is the demigod and half-human girl of Achaya, and Jupiter once turned into a dove to pursue her, see Aria: "Historical Collection", Volume 1, Chapter 15.

④ Epicurus (before 341-270): the great philosopher of ancient Greece. ⑤ Theological thinking is the second kind of thinking. ⑥ Lactangius: Catholic apologist in the fourth century. ⑦ See Chapter 10 of Volume 16 of Lactangius's "False Religion". ⑧ Latin: "No testicles." Legend has it that there was a female pope in the past, so after the election of the new pope, he had to sit on an exposed chair to let people see that he was indeed a man. ⑨ Latin: "Fractures and limbs are broken, and the blood all over the body is frightened to freeze."

① For the story, see Chapter 27 of the first volume of "Historical Collection" by Arianus. ② The winner of the dice roll is John, who is also an alias for the tortoise. ③ Hercules does not fight two opponents, see line 39 of Chapter 5 of Volume 1 of Erasmus' Proverbs. "No, no," said Panagure. "I was thinking about gambling." The poem that Banuzhi translated for the third time is: Foemineo praedoe et spoliorum ardebat amore. ④ Paguguai said: "This hexagram means that she wants to steal you. According to the above three hexagrams, I see you for sure: you will be a turtle in the future, you will be beaten, and you will be stolen." Banurge said: "It's not true at all. This hexagram means that she will love me with all her heart. The satirist once said that a passionate woman sometimes takes pleasure in stealing her lover. This is by no means nonsense. You Do you know what to steal? A glove, a small thing, a little insignificant thing, I asked him to look for it on purpose. "The same is true of the small quarrels and quarrels that often occur between lovers. They can only enhance and stimulate love. This is like the knife sharpener we see, sometimes knocking a few times on the whetstone to sharpen the knife. faster. "Therefore, I think all three trigrams are good. Otherwise, I don't accept it." Paiguguay said: "If you don't accept it, you can't accept it. Our ancient jurists, as well as the last volume of Baldus's "Jurisdiction". The reason is that there is no Nothing is higher than fate, and fate does not allow anyone to express dissent. Therefore, the weak cannot have all his rights. Baldus in the commentary on "Doctrine Compilation" Volume IV Chapter IV Section 7 It has been clearly explained." ④ Latin: "With the flame of female excitement, rob people's clothes." See the seventh and eighth second lines of the eleventh volume of "Init". ⑤ Refers to the 210th line of the sixth volume of the Roman poet Juvenal's "Satirical Poems" in the second century. ① Baldus: Fourteenth-century jurist.
