47 Such, then, is the character of the mythology of the sages.

48 The Chaldeans declare that of the planets, which they call tutelary gods,The translation is based on an emendation of Wyttenbach’s, which makes the words refer to Chaldean astrology (i.e. the planet under which one is born). Cf. Sextus Empiricus, Adversus Mathematicos, v. 29. two are beneficent, two maleficent, and the other three are median and partake of both qualities. The beliefs of the Greeks are well known to all; they make the good part to belong to Olympian Zeus and the abominated part to Hades, and they rehearse a legend that Concord is sprung from Aphroditê and Ares,That is, from Love and War. the one of whom is harsh and contentious, and the other mild and tutelary. Observe also that the philosophers are in agreement with these; for HeracleitusDiels, Frag. der Vorsokratiker, i. p. 88, no. b 53. without reservation styles War the Father and King and Lord of All, and he says that when Homer Il. xviii. 107, but Plutarch modifies the line to suit his context. prays that Strife may vanish away from the ranks of the gods and of mortals, he fails to note that he is invoking a curse on the origin of all things, since all things originate from strife and antagonism; also Heracleitus says that the Sun will not transgress his appropriate bounds, otherwise the stern-eyed maidens, ministers of Justice, will find him out. Cf. Moralia, 604 a; Origen, Against Celsus, vi. 42; Diels, Frag. der Vorsokratiker, i. p. 96, no. b 94.

48 Empedocles Ibid. p. 232, Empedocles, no. 18; p. 239, no. 17, 1. 19; and p. 269, no. 122 (=Moralia, 474 b). calls the beneficent principle friendship or friendliness, and oftentimes he calls Concord sedate of countenance; the worse principle he calls accursed quarrelling and blood-stained strife.
