Note 672 — Chapter XIV · LEGENDS OF THEBES.
Reading edition
Apollodôr. iii. 7, 7; Pausan. viii. 24, 3-4. His remarks upon the mischievous longing of Kallirhoê for the necklace are curious: he ushers them in by saying, that “many men, and still more women, are given to fall into absurd desires,” etc. He recounts it with all the bonne foi which belongs to the most assured matter of fact.
A short allusion is in Ovid’s Metamorphoses (ix. 412).
