Thinking of the Issy Chariot Card and Maids of Honour :?
Could it not hark back to Maia the to- be wife of Mars and the to-be Mother of Mercury- Maia Majestas, the Queen of May in her Chariot? Her four attendents might be- Fauna of the animals, Damia lady of wild places, Ops giver of abundance, Fatua speaker of prophecies. (looking at the hand gestures and relating it to what was later in English, Ladies of the Bedchamber, Mistresses of the Wardrobe) The seventh day of the May moon is the birthday of her brother Apollo. Would make a great Tableau for a Marriage Chariot.
