ABSTRACT

Hee was the god of warre, and son of Jupiter and Juno, or of Juno alone as some say, who conceived him by touching of a flower in the garden 412of Olenius. Vulcan finding him abed with Venus his wife, wrapt them both in a net, so that they could not stir, till Neptune by intreatie got Vulcan to loose them; his sister was Bellona. 5
