Ignatius and the Wheel of Fortune

Ignatius believed in the Rota Fortunae or Wheel of Fortune a central concept in De Consolacione Philosophia. He wondered whether his pyloric valve might be trying Cassandra-like to tell him something. O Fortunae blind heedless goddess I am strapped to your wheel Ignatius belched. Do not crush me beneath your spokes. Raise me on high divinity. What are you mumbling about in there boy? His mom asked through the closed door. But Roman Mancuso is coming today to see me about the accident. You better say a little hail Mary for me too honey. Oh my god Ignatius muttered.
