CYANIPPUS

CYANIPPUS
I.
CYANIPPUS
Syracusanus, qui cum Bacchi orgia contemneret, ab irato Deo tantâ perfusus est ebrietate, ut filiae Cyanae in tenebris, quam vis reluctanti, vitium intulerit. Peste mox obortâ, oraculum incestuosi mortem petiit, qui, a filia eo perductus, se ipsum sacrificavit. Plut. in Parall. Vide Cyana.
II.
CYANIPPUS
Theslalus, cum frequentissime venatum ire consuevisset, nova eius sponsa, ob magnam viri in silvis consuetudinem, alterius mulieris concubitum suspicata, euntem Cyanippum pedetentim subsecuta est, cumque inter densa delituisset arbusta, rerum praestolatur eventum. At ramis forte commotis, feram adesse canes suspicantes, impetu sactô, amantissimam viri puellam, tamquam brutum animal dilacerârunt. Id vero insperatum adeo facinus, cum Cyanippus inspexit, mortem sibi conscivit. Plut. in Paral.
