* Colotes.-Ainsworth and Lempriere accent this word on the antepenulti mate syllable; but Labbe, Gouldman, and Holyoke, more agreeably to the general ear, on the penultimate.

* See Iphigenia.-Neptune, who shakes the earth, his daughter gave, Cymopolia, to reward the brave.

COOKE's Hesiod. Theog. v. 1132,

+ Cytherea. Behold a nymph arise, divinely fair,
Whom to Cythera first the surges bear;
And Aphrodite, from the foam, her name,
Among the race of gods and men the same;
And Cytherea from Cythera came.

+ Cytheris.

COOKE'S Hesiod. Theog. v. 299.
