Sdom of the ancients. this love is introduced without any parent at all; only, that some say he was an egg of night. and himself out of chaos begot all things, the gods included. the attributes which are assigned to him are in number four: he is always an infant; he is blind; he is naked; he is an archer. there was also another love, the youngest of all the gods, son of venus, to whom the attributes of the elder are transferred, and whom in a way they suit. bacon’s purpose is to explain what chaos is. love is. night is. venus is.

Love is.

We know that what he is describing is said to be "an egg of Night...out of Chaos" and "son of Venus". This then eliminates all of these options. We also know it is Love because he says "There was also another Love". In order for there to be "another" there needs to be an initial one. Also, it says Love "is always an infant; he is blind; he is naked; he is an archer". These traits could all be used to describe Cupid, who is Love.
