I reproduce the picture opposite page 82.
Two pictures with scriptural subjects represent Christ in the garden of Gethsemane, and Matthew (an Evangelist rarely painted in Venice, where his colleague Mark has all the attention) being called from the receipt of custom.

And finally there is the delightful and vivid representation of S.Tryphonius and the basilisk.

This picture, of which I give a reproduction opposite page 76, is both charming and funny.

The basilisk is surely in the highest rank of the comic beasts of art.

It seems to be singing, but that is improbable; what it is unmistakably not doing is basilisking.
