ENGLISH CHURCH ARCHITECTURE Of Him the Psalmist spoke: O howsweet are Thy words unto my throat, yea,sweeter than honey unto my mouth. Thedragon is symbolic of the devil. The various colours of the panther wereheld to signify the various attributes of God.For Hos. V. 14, which the Authorised Versionrenders, I will be unto Ephraim as a hon,and as a young lion to the house of Judah,the Septuagint gives : I am as a pantherto Ephraim, and as a lion to the house ofJudah. With this possible exception, thepanther is not mentioned in the Bible. On the Norman door at Alne there is abeast inscribed Panther a, towards whicha winged dragon is looking, instead of flyingaway as usual. In a book on the Tournai fonts by Mr. CecilH. Eden it has erroneously been stated thata salamander is carved on the marble font atWinchester. The animal which has been takenfor a salamander is really a hon. The salamander in the Hereford mappamimdi is more Hke a lizard with two wingsand two legs, and curious spots down
