It is probably also crucial that both animals are female. Unlike Hercules, Orlando faces a lioness and a snakess. Emblematic significances for lionesses are scant. They appear in Bestiaria. […] Analyzing the emblematic tradition related to Shakespeare’s snakess and lioness, Waddington drew attention to Icon Peccati, an emblem of Peacham, derived from Ripa, in which we see a naked young man. The snake of concupiscence winds itself around his loins and another snake gnaws at his heart. The position of the female snake reflects the winding and penetrating satanic snake in that the neck is now involved."
