Excerpt from Æschyli SupplicesEpaphus, filius J ovis et Ifis, contactu J ovis dictus, genuit Belum, qui duos filios habuit, ]egyptum et Banaum. Zegypfi autem erant quin quaginta filii, et Danai totidem filiae: Egyptus autem, ut regnum fratris ad se averteret, cupiebat suos filios cum patruelibus uxoribus conjungere, quod ipse Danaus ei recusabat, partim ob regnum, partim ob periculum necis, quam sibi instare ab uno filiorum fratris ab oraculo cognoverat. Cum tamen ]egyptus esset potentior, et vi adigere Banaum ad condi tionem filiorum accipiendam pararet, Danaus filias navi imposuit, et Argos aufugit, unde meminerat Io auctorem sui generis olim venisse, ubi post regnavit, et Danais nomen a se dedit. Inducitur itaque chorus Danaidum supplicantium apud Argos, ut Argivi defendant illas ab injuria violentarum.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
