γόνιμον ἐκ τῆς
ἑστίας, καὶ τοῦτο τὴν κόρην τῇ Τανακυλλίδι 1 φράσαι μόνῃ περίφοβον
γενομένην. τὴν δὲ συνετὴν οὖσαν καὶ φρενήρη κοσμῆσαί τε τὴν κόρην ὅσα
νύμφαις πρέπει καὶ συγκαθεῖρξαι τῷ φάσματι, θεῖον ἡγουμένην. οἱ μὲν
ἥρωος οἰκουροῦ λέγουσιν, οἱ δ᾽ Ἡφαίστου

δὲ περὶ Ἀντίαν οὐχ οὕτω λέγουσιν, ἀλλὰ τυχεῖν μὲν τῷ Σερουίῳ τὴν
γυναῖκα Γεγανίαν 2 θνήσκουσαν, αὐτὸν δὲ τῆς μητρὸς; παρούσης εἰς ὕπνον ἐκ
δυσθυμίας
