103. I saw a great dog, such as that called Cerberus by the most ancient writers; his jaws gaped horribly. It was said that such a dog means guarding, so that man should not pass from heavenly conjugial love to the infernal love of adultery. When the former love passes into that opposed to it, though the pleasure seems almost the same, then such a figure is presented to guard against the opposed pleasures communicating.
