The island of Rhodes was sacred to Helios. […] It was called “the sacred marriage,” and every living being was invited. […] The hawk, goose, and peacock were sacred to her. […] The hind, dog, bear, and wild boar were sacred to her. […] The goddess reprimanded him for molesting an animal sacred to her.
