Greek Original:*monokrh/pidi: tw=| *(ermh=|. fasi\ ga\r to\n qeo\n tou=ton *persei= e)pi\ th\n th=s *gorgou=s tomh\n a)pio/nti to\ e(/teron tw=n u(podhma/twn do/nta, to\ e(/teron e)/xein mo/non.
Notes:
The dative singular headword is quoted from
Artemidorus 4.63; Hermes is in the dative because an offering is made to him after a dream.
The myth of the single sandal applies normally to Jason, and the myths may have become confused in this passage;
Artemidorus mentions
Lycophron in passing, but
Lycophron (
Alexandra 1310) uses the adjective to refer to Jason.
