Excerpt from Some Elizabethan Opinions of the Poetry and Character of Ovid: A Dissertation Widely scattered and radically differing expressions of opin ion with regard to the personality and works of Ovid appear in England from Sir Thomas Elyot's The Governour (1531) to Dry den's Preface to the Fables With very general agreement that the poems often give occasion for offense to the moral sense, and in some instances with extremely plain speaking upon this matter, writers commonly see one of two possibilities. Some would condemn the poems to what they regarded as well-merited oblivion, while others would have recourse to what they considered a sort of Higher Criticism. They would separate the good from the evil in the poems, and ignoring or forgetting the latter, make the utmost profit out of the good. On their favorite analogy of the bee, which extracts honey from even the most poisonous plants, they would, moreover, find some profit in the evil itself. The latter very natu rally, therefore, attach peculiar importance to the manner of read ing or interpretation. Moralization, based on the assumed under lying allegory, or in some cases very numerous allegories, is the alchemy with which they would transmute the baser metal. What appears to the hasty reader or to the untrained mind as a filthy fable must in this view be moralized in its kind; whereupon it yields matter both pleasant and profitable, thereby justifying the oft-quoted Horatian maxim.
