The Sex of the Two Luminaries

Formerly it was the female luminary that came out at night. But she was so greatly shocked at the immoralities which she saw going on out of doors among the grass, that she exchanged with the male luminary, who, being a man, did not care so much.

So now the sun is a female deity, and the moon is a male deity.

But surely the sun must be often shocked at what she sees going on even in the day-time, when the young people are in the open among the grass.
