Saturn is represented as an old man, with a scythe in his hand. […] He afterwards reigned in peace and honour, at Argos, and died in old age. […] Nestor was very old, having lived three ages, — that is supposed to signify three of thirty years, and he was consequently ninety years old. […] How was the old age of Nestor passed? […] Achilles could not resist the supplications of the old man, and gave up the body.
