ABSTRACT
“There is a mysterious wisdom by which phenomena among themselves disparate can be called analogous names, just as divine things can be designated by terrestrial terms, and through equivocal symbols God can be called lion or leopard; and death can be called sword; joy, flame; flame, death; death, abyss; abyss, perdition; perdition, raving; and raving, passion…The more it is a dissimilar similitude and not literal, the more a metaphor reveals its truth…”
