Hel´inore

( Dame ), wife of Malbecco, who was jealous of her, and not without cause. When Sir Paridel, Sir Sat´yrane ( 3 syl. ), and Britomart (as the squire of Dames) took refuge in Malbecco’s house, Dame Helinore and Sir Paridel had many “false belgardes” at each other, and talked love with glances which needed no interpreter. Helinore, having set fire to the closet where Malbecco kept his treasures, eloped with Paridel, while the old miser stopped to put out the fire. Paridel soon tired of the dame, and cast her off, leaving her to roam whither she listed. She was taken up by the satyrs, who made her their dairy-woman, and crowned her queen of the May.—Spenser, Faëry Queen , iii. 9, 10 (1590). Viridi colore est gemma helitropion, non ita acuto sed nubilo mag is et repre o, stell is puniceis superspersa. Causa nominis de effectu lapidis est et pot estate. Dejecta in labris æneis radios sol is mut at sanguineo repercu u, utraque aqua splendorem aëris abjicit et avert it. Etiam illud po e dicitur, ut herb a ejusdem nominis mixt a et præcant at i on i bus legitim is consecrata eum, a quocunque gest abitur, subtrahat visibus obviorum.—Solinus, Geog. , xl.
