Note 57:3 — INTRODUCTION.[vii:1]
Andrew P. (Andrew Preston) Peabody translation
The chief offence charged in Grecian myth against Neleus was his refusing to perform expiatory rites for Hercules after he had killed Iphitus, whose father was the friend of Neleus. Hercules, according to some traditions, made war on Pylos, the kingdom of Neleus, and killed him, with all his sons except Nestor.
