The Greek mother, Rhea, was attended by the Curetes; the Phrygian mother by the Corybantes, who celebrated her orgies with enthusiastic din of trumpets, drums, and cymbals. […] This goddess became, as we have already seen, the mother of Apollo and Diana. […] As it happened, they had been ordered to execute the cruel sentence upon their mother. […] In order to revenge himself upon the mother who had so despitefully used him, he fashioned in the depths of the sea a throne of cunning device, which he sent to his mother. […] Phaëton complained of the insult to his mother Clymene.
