The Stoics held that planet [Luna, the Moon] to be mixed of fire and air, and in their opinion, the variety of its composition, caused her spots. Anaxagoras thought all the stars to be of an earthly nature, mixed with some fire, and as for the Sunne, he affirmed it to be nothing else but a fiery stone; for which latter opinion, the Athenians sentenced him to death; those zealous Idolaters counting it a great blasphemy, to make their God a stone, whereas not withstanding, they were too senseless in their adoration of Idolls, as to make a stone their God.

[The Roman camp, Britain.]

Posthumus:

                            So I'll fight
Against the part I come with; so I'll die
For thee, O Innogen, even for whom my life
Is every breath a death; and, thus unknown,
Myself I'll dedicate. Let me make men know
More valour in me than my habits show.

Gods, put the strength o'th' Leonati in me.

To shame the guise o'th' world, I will begin
The fashion — less without and more within.

William Shakespeare
Cymbeline, 5.1.24-33
