Read the passage from of the wisdom of the ancients.
let us now consider his [cupid’s] attributes. he is described with great elegance as a little child, and a child for ever; for things compounded are larger and are affected by age; whereas the primary seeds of things, or atoms, are minute and remain in perpetual infancy.
most truly also is he represented as naked: for all compounds (to one that considers them rightly) are masked and clothed; and there is nothing properly naked, except the primary particles of things.
bacon lists cupid’s attributes in order to
a.)show that cupid is real.
b.)prove that cupid is a child.
c.)disprove the existence of the atom.
d.)compare them to the features of the atom.
