Note 5 — BELLEROPHON.
Reading edition
The well-known ruins of Tiryns, at the head of the Argolic gulf, between Nauplia and Argos. The “galleries” make a fine figure in illustrated tours; but Tiryns, situated on a low elliptical hillock, will disappoint the traveller. Not so Mycenæ, of which the remains are truly sublime, and well worthy to be associated for ever with the memory of the “king of men.”
