William Julius Mickle translation

Thermodon, a river of Scythia in the country of the Amazons.

Quales Threïciæ cum flumina Thermodontis Pulsant et pictis bellantur Amazones armis: Seu circum Hippolyten, seu cum se Martia curru Penthesilea refert: magnoque ululante tumultu Fœminea exsultant lunatis agmina peltis. Virg. Æn. xi. 659.
