In the verses which commence,
“I sing how the heroes from Cytæan Æeta,
Return’d again to ancient Æmonia.”[293]
And again concerning the Colchians, who,
“Ceasing to plough with oars the Illyrian Sea,[294]
Near to the tomb of fair Harmonia,
Who was transform’d into a dragon’s shape,
Founded their city, which a Greek would call
The Town of Fugitives, but in their tongue
Is Pola named.”
