[104]For this introduction to Heliodorus I am largely indebted to the edition of Les Éthiopiques edited by R. M. Rattenbury. T. W. Lumb, J. Maillon, Paris, vol. I, 1935; vol. II, 1938. For the Testimonia see Heliodori Aethiopica by Aristides Colonna, Rome, 1938, pp. 361-72.

[108]II. 35, translated by the Rev. Rowland Smith, in The Greek Romances of Heliodorus, Longus, and Achilles Tatius, London, 1855, pp. 61-62. It is impossible to reproduce in English the Greek’s hidden references to the names of Chariclea, Famed-for-her-Grace, and of Theagenes, the Goddess-Born.
