Emblem Twenty
Nature teaches nature to overcome the fire.
Listen to fugue twenty
EPIGRAM 20
The dragon-greedy all-devouring fire
Attempts the Virgin's beauty to destroy.
A man who chanced to see her bathed in tears
Prepared to do the work of helping her.
Straightway he shielded her and fought the foe,
And taught her mind to spurn such threatenings.
