To Whom Will Ye Flee
All Resolutions
What will ye do in the day of your visitation, to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?—Isaiah X. 3.
Description:
Book the Second. Emblem IV. A creature with the body of a putto, the face of an owl, and the wings of a bat rises from a spherical mushroom, larger than any other scattered throughout the clearing. The motto Venturum exhorresco diem (I fear the light of the coming day) is displayed amid the ornamental motifs surrounding the main illustrations.
For this series of illustrations, the main figurative artwork was carried out by Charles Henry Bennett and the ornamental part by William Harry Rogers.
