Picture XXXVI.
Orgies of Cotytto. Baptæ preparing a Philtrum. See the Vth Epode of Horace.
Venus now wakes, and wakens Love.
Come let us our rites begin——
Hail Goddess of nocturnal sport,
Dark-veil'd Cotytto——
Stay thy cloudy ebon chair,
Wherein thou rid'st with Hecat', and befriend
Us thy vow'd priests, till utmost end
Of all thy dues be done.—— V. 124, 128, 134.
