W. (William) Falconer translation
Probably those mentioned in a fragment of Timæus, quoted by Tzetzes, (ad Lycophr. v. 732-737,) as having migrated to Italy under the command of Diotimus, who also instituted the λαμπαδηφορία, which was still observed at Naples in the time of Statius:
Tuque Actæa Ceres, cursu cui semper anhelo Votivam taciti quassamus lampada mystæ. Silv. iv. 8, 50.
