Text Appearing Before Image:
terpretation : not so the Physiologus. Therhysiologiis says that the hart and dragonare at enmity. When the former sees thelatter it goes and fills its stomach with waterat the nearest stream, while the dragon fleesfor refuge into a cleft of the rocks. Thencomes the hart, and blows the water downinto the hole where the dragon is, so as todrown it out. The dragon is finally dispatchedby the harts feet. This absurd story of thehart makes it typical of our redemption byJesus Christ. Our Lord followed the devilinto the lower places of the earth, and, bypouring blood and water from His side, droveaway the devil by the waters of regeneration. This story is probably carved in wood on thepulpit of Forrabury, Cornwall ; though in thiscase the dragon is more like a four-leggedbeast or devil. Here we see the hart at thetop of the carving, hurrying as fast as it can,while below is the cleft of the rock, and oneither side of the cleft are the head andhindquarters of the devil who is looking out 50
