The bitches of the prince were called Harpies. […]  4. — A Greek prince by the name of Apollo, loved Clytia, and abandoned her for Leucothe. […] Being insulted by that prince, they took wings and flew away. […] That prince, greedy after riches, asked of him the gift of turning every thing he should touch into gold. […] That treacherous prince threw him unawares from a high rock, and he perished in the sea.

Her name was famous throughout Greece, and princes and merchants paid her great prices for her wonderful embroidery. […] When the prince of Crete had grown up, his father told him he might take part in the festival, and so he went to Athens. […] And this was nothing less than the coming of their own prince to his father’s kingdom. […] And that was the reason why no one asked after the other young prince. […] “The prince wishes to die alone,” answered the king.
