The Romans feared their dead. In fact, Roman funeral customs derived from a need to propitiate the sensibilities of the departed.

All this and the pungent air!—almost foul, with so many odors. Ô, that and the spicy night! …Pungency, spice, filth and night, dust and light; all things dark did blossom in sight; flower and bloom, the night has its pearl too—the moon! And once a month it will make the face of this tender girl bloom.
