A glimpse of Diana’s virginal body seals the fate of Actaeon, the hunter. The goddess transforms him into a stag. He is hunted down - killed by his own fifty hounds.
“They gathered round him, and they fixed their snouts deep in his flesh: tore him to pieces, he whose features only as a stag appeared. - 'Tis said Diana's fury raged with none abatement till the torn flesh ceased to live.”
Ovid, Metamorphoses, Book III, translated by Brookes More (1859-1942), Cornhill Edition (1922)
Envious of Orion and Diana's bond, Apollo tricks her into shooting a distant dot in the ocean - unknowingly killing Orion. In her grief, she casts his spirit into the stars.
“ The waves brought his slain body to the shore, and Diana, grieving greatly that she had struck him, and mourning his death with many tears, put him among the constellations.”
