C. Myths and Beliefs Roman Gods Six couches were put out in public; one for Jupiter and Juno, another for Neptune and Minerva, a third for Mars and Venus, a fourth for Apollo and Diana, a fifth for Vulcan and Vesta, and the sixth for Mercury and Ceres. Livy, Ad Urbe Condita 22.10.9 Jupiter and Mercury visit an old couple, Baucis and Philemon. Jupiter once came here, disguised as a mortal, and with him His son, the messenger Mercury, wand and wings set aside, Looking for shelter and rest, they called at a thousand homesteads A thousand doors were bolted against them. One house, however Did make them welcome, a humble abode with a roof of straw And marsh reed, one that knew its duty to gods and men. Ovid Metamorphoses 8 626–631 Gilt bronze head of Minerva
