APOLLO ( p . 1 3 6 )
Apoll o was one of the great divini ti es o f the Gre e ks .
The powers ascribed to him were of di ffer ent kinds ; he was
the god who puni shes , whenc e he i s r epres ented wi th h ow and
~ arro ws ; the go d who affords help and wards off evi l ; the
god of prophecy ; the god of s ong and musi c ; the god who
delights in the foundation of c i ti es and towns and the
establ i shm ent of c ivi l cons ti tuti ons ; and , perhaps mos t
popul arly , he was regarded as the god of the sun .

AE ( P . 21 , 22 , 23 , 4 5 ) Danae was the daughter of Acri sius and the mother of
Perseus . According to the l egend an oracl e decl ared that
her son woul d kill hi s grandfather . Acri s ius therefore c on
fined Dana e i n an underground chamb er . But she was here
vi si te d by Zeus in the form of a shower of gol d , and b ore
him Per seus . Acri sius then put m other and son in a chest
and expos ed them on the sea . The ches t , however , drifted
ashore on the i sland of Seriphos , and Danae and her chil d
were saved . They remained there till Per seus had grown
and b ecame a hero famous for hi s expl oi ts . Later Danae
accompani ed him to Argos , whenc e Acri s ius fl ed at hi s
approach- aonl y to mee t death acc identall y at Lari s sa from

u i s Phil emon an d B. a c s were a pair of poor Phrygian peasant ,
the Darby and J oan of clas s ical anti qui ty . Jupi ter and
Mercury , wandering through the c ountry in human form , were
ho spi tably enter tained by them when all the neighbors had
turned the travel ers from their doors . The gods , therefore ,
whil e des troying all the res t of the neighb orhood by fl oods ,
changed their poor co ttage to a spl endi d templ e . Here the
two hel d the pri es tly offic e for the res t of their l ives
and finally , on their prayer that they might not b e
s eparated by death , were bo th at the same moment changed
into trees .
