I understand.
Well, it's holidays time ...
For the Folengo text "Triperuno" there's the idea, that it not only contains just 5 Tarocchi sonnets, but that the row of the Tarocchi build up a meta scheme based on a Tarot card sequence. Which ? That's naturally a riddle, and that's extraordinary complicated, cause Folengo alias Merlinus Coccai didn't feel in the mood to make it easy for his readers.
So we have in that, what probably is chapter 13 naturally DEATH, and the death tragically occurs to Galante, celebrated two chapters before as part of the big love story "Amore di Triperuno e Galanta". Well, Triperuno is the three-fold author, which means Folengo himself in all his pseudonyms, and Galanta is a weasel, which finds its cruel end, when a door is closed with too much energy. So - in a big step, which follows DEATH - we have now in chapter 14 - TEMPERANCE - the almost logical FUNERAL: A series of poets give some consolation poems to celebrate the event and with this the second part (= second forest) of three finishes (the text is structured 0, 1-3 (first forest), 4-14 (second forest). 15-21 (third forest).
Well, the Galante story is formed according "Galanthis" ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galanthis
... and a girl is modified to a weasel, finds her end, and ..."When Heracles grew up, he built a sanctuary to Galinthias and sacrificed to her; the practice of honoring Galinthias in Thebes lasted down to late times."
Here "FAME = TEMPERANCE" is interpreted as "FUNERAL ORATIONS" ... a rather logical idea.
If we look at Tarot - as in the Marseille sequence- we have Petrarca's triumphs:
Well, we know, that Father Time appears inside the Tarot Sequence between 6 LOVE and 13 DEATH and not between 14 TEMPERANCE and 20/21 ETERNITY.....
6 LOVE
...
? Chastity
...
13 DEATH
14 FAMA = TEMPERANCE
...
? Time
...
20/21 ETERNITY
So there's a sort of contradiction, though, if we follow the Idea of CHASTITY (a female person at a triumphal Chariot), one feels tempted to recognize, that early Trionfi decks (Visconti) had such a female charioteer. It would look like this:
Or better:...(1-5)
6 LOVE
7 CHASTITY
...(8-12)
13 DEATH
14 FAME
... (15-19?)
20 TIME (?)
21 ETERNITY
This would give a sort of perfect harmony between Petrarca's 6 Trionfi ideas and those observable in the Marseille Tarot. As if the Tarot had been developed from Petrarca's ideas in a direct way.01-02-03-04-05 - 06 LOVE - 07 CHASTITY
08-09-10-11-12 - 13 DEATH - 14 FAME
15-16-17-18-19 - 20 TIME (?) - 21 ETERNITY
But we have - beside the Father-Time-contradiction - other contradictions:
a. there were also other orders, and none of the others has a "high Temperance"
b. there are indications enough, that there were other number of triumphs (5x14-theory, Chess-Tarot-theory)
Time actually is governed objectively by Sun, Moon, Stars (by these it is measured), and subjectively by the personal hourglass, as carried by Father Time. So the man with the hour glass is correctly placed "before DEATH (= 13)", as he relates to personal time. But Temperance (= FAME) connected to the "mechanical clock" is correctly above DEATH together with Sun-Moon-Star.
