It is related that Dionysius, the tyrant of Syracuse, visited a temple in Sicily, where he saw a statue of Jupiter arrayed in a mantle of wrought gold. […] Pan saw the transformation, and was much grieved. […] When he saw what he had done, he shut the box quickly, and prevented Hope, which was lying at the bottom, from escaping also. […] Halcyone was apprised of the sad event in a dream, in which she saw her husband stand before her, with pallid countenance and dripping garments. […] When the wife of Baldur saw the funeral pile prepared, she died of grief, and her body was consumed with that of her husband.
