ipse ignis, nostrum factus qui servit ad usum, Vulcanus perhibetur et in virtute superna fingitur ac delubra, deus et nomine et ore adsimilatus, habet, necnon regnare caminis fertur et Aeoliae summus faber esse vel Aetnae.
The very fire, a created thing in the service of our needs, is called Vulcan and fashioned with the attributes of divine power. Represented as a god in name and features, it has shrines and is said to rule over furnaces and to be High Chief Smith of Aeolia or Etna.
