CERCYON
latro insignis, apud Eleusinem, Atticae civitatem, tantô corporis robore, ut validissimas arbores incurvare posset, quibus viatores alligatos discerpebat. Filiam habuit nomine Atopen, quae a Neptuno vitiata Hippothoonta peperit. Quod cum nutricis iudiciô rescivisset Cercyon, tam aegre id tulit, ut puerum quidem in silvis devorandum feris obiecerit, filiam vero carceri inclusam fame enecârit. Interfectus est tandem a Theseo eôdem supplicii genere, quô ipse in viatores saevire consueverat. Ovid. Met. l. 7. Fab. 23. v. 439.
Cercyonis letum vidit Cerealis Elcusis.
Inde Cercyoncus adiectivum. Idem in Ibin, v. 411.
Quaeque Ceres vidit laeto pereuntiavultu
Corpora, Thescâ Cercyonea manu.
