—Juvenal Ten columns, dyed with Tyrian, marched down the cella of the temple, to the obsidian plinth, figured with shields. There stood the god: Mars Pater, in his armour, bearded and helmed, night-underlit by the votive lamp. The sprays of fig, oak and laurel from the spring festival were still aromatic and sappy. In his small house by the shrine, the elderly, tame wolf, sacred to the god, lay quietly, muzzle on long paws. He was a pet of the priests, more often than not his chain was off. He w...ould eat from your hand, had forgotten he was ever a wolf at all. The man who had entered, grizzled and muscular, perhaps in his fiftieth year, offered the wolf a titbit, watched him eat, nodded, and walked back into the central aisle before the statue. The man carried a bundle, which he now unwrapped and put down on the altar. He bowed his head, and seemed to pray. A priest came into the cella. The man who prayed broke off, looked up; he appeared glad that the priest was an old man, someone he had known for years.
