Ariosto tells u story of fury who,
by some mysterious law of her nature,
was condemned to appear at certain
seasons in the form Of fool and poi
sonous snake. Those who injured her
during the period OF her gnise were
ever excluded from participation in the
blessings she bestowed but to those
who, in spite of her loathsome aspect,
pitied and protected her, she afterward
revealed harself in the beautiful and
celestial form which was natural to her,
accompanied their steps, granted all
their wishes, filed their houses with
wealth, made them happy in love and
victorious in war. A useful moral
might be drawn from this little fable,
in favor of showing kindness and civil.
ity to the most degraded and unhappy.
