SATURN, was reprefented, by the Romans, in the form of
an old man, holding a fcythe or hook in his hand ; which fome
take to reprefent Time, as is alfo intimated by his name Xplw,
Chronos.
He was alfo reprefented as a very aged man, as one who be-
gan with the beginning of the world, holding in his hand a child,
which he feems greedily devouring.
By this is fignified the revenge he took for his being expelled
heaven bv his own children, according to the mythology of the
poets. Thofe who efcaped his fury were only four, Jupiter,
Juno, Pluto, and Neptune: By which are fhadowed forth the
four elements, fire, air, earth, and water ; which are not pe-
rifhing by the all-cutting fickle of devouring Time.
He has alfo been depicted as an old man, holding in his right
hand a ferpent, with the end of its tail in its mouth ; turning
round with a very flow pace : He had alfo his temples adorned
with a green wreath, and the hair of his head and beard milk-
white.
The wreath on his temples fignifies the fpring of the year ; his
milk-white or hoary head and beard, the approach of rigid win-
ter'; and the flownefs of the ferpent's motion, the flow revolu-
tion of the planet Saturn.
He is alfo defcribed, by Macrobius, with the heads of a lion,
a dog, and a wolf.
By the lion's head is fignified the time prefent ; which is al-
ways the fhongeft, for that which is, muft needs be more pow-
erful than that which is not; By the dog's head, the time to
