Sophocles,
Oedipus at Colonus 691 (web address 1), with comments derived from the
scholia thereto. The two metaphorical expressions that are comprised in the Suda's headword phrase feature in those
scholia, without attribution. The first is attested (though in the singular) at
Pindar,
Paean fr. 52d.14 Snell-Maehler. The second occurs in Apollonius Rhodius,
Argonautica 4.1246 (and already, with the two words reversed, in
Euripides,
Iphigeneia in Tauris 46).
