After many ages mankind be-

the consequences Of mems acts
were so far off that their con.
sciences could not see them with
sufficient clearncss to be sure that
they existed ut all. The situation
became 1T last unbearable, and a
man named Aristodemus was sent
up 10 Olympus with petition TO
Jupiter that he would be- pleased
10 make the consequences of all
bad actions follow immediately up.
