3 sq. ; Petron. Lxxxviii. 7 sq. , lxxxv. 5. 5 Juven. Vi. 366-378. 6 Petron. Ut supra. PRAYER. 189 exorcisms or sacrifices, appointed to secure a hearing to prayer ; only it was very easy, and at the time dangerous, to make some mistake or other in the names or the ceremonies ; and if a god was addressed wrongly, his anger might be roused, and the im- prudence unpleasantly requited. 1 The sources of acquaintance with the Greek life of this period are only scanty, and therefore but few features b...earing on the point are traceable. We recognise one of the prevailing senti- ments in a remark of Artemidorus, that persons who fell into any great misfortune never failed to renounce religion. 2 In the letters of Aristsenetus, an adulteress prays the gods to show her the way to the embraces of her paramour ; 3 and in the epigrams of the Anthology they are besought to be propitious to that hideous vice so inseparably connected with the Greek name. 4 Theocritus actually represents the death of a youth struck by lightning, before an image of Eros, as a punishment from the gods for having a short time previously rejected a shameful pro- position.
