217 Let us now turn our eyes toward the tribunal of Pluto ; where you see, in that dismal picture, con- tinual trials : and all persons, as well the accusers as the offenders, who have been formerly wicked in their lives, receive their death impartially from the three Fates ; after death they receive their sentence impartially from the three judges; and after condem- nation, their pmiishment impartially from the three Furies. The Fates are represented by three ladies : their garments are made o...f ermine, white as snow, and bordered with purple. They were born either of Nox and Erebus, or of Necessity, or of the Sea, or of that rude and undigested mass which the ancients called Chaos. They are called Parcse in Latin ; because, as *Varro thinks, thej^ distributed good and bad things to persons at their birth ; or, as the common and received opinion is, f because they spare nobody. They are also called Fatum, " fate ;" and are three in number, because they order, the past, present, and future time.
