“The Greek name or a buttery is
Psyche
, and the same word means thesoul. There is no illustration o the immortality o the soul so striking andbeautiul as the buttery, bursting on brilliant wings rom the tomb inwhich it has lain, ater a dull, grovelling, caterpillar existence, to utter inthe blaze o day and eed on the most ragrant and delicate productionso the spring.
Psyche
, then, is the human soul, which is purifed bysuerings and misortunes, and is thus prepared or the enjoymento true and pure happiness.”
“The Age o Fable” by Thomas Bulfnch (1796-1867)
