[Image: penises.jpg?w=616]

If the one on the right is an ejaculating penis, is the one on the left a non-erect one?

I am not sure I count as a proponent of a biological interpretation: these shapes just seem to me to be somehow comparable with internal organs and their illustrations in medieval art. The parallels I am aware of are not enough to support anything specific (maybe with the exception of the "intestines" in 77v). I think the image on the right might or might not represent ejaculation: it could as well represent some other physiological phenomenon, or something entirely different.

It seems there is a pattern of a wider basin containing one or more nymphs above, with some kind of tube below. Both basins and tubes have different shapes, but the overall arrangement seems to recur. I guess it must mean something more general than the anatomy of the male reproductive system.
