ADDENDA.

Cerco'pes: grotesque and gnome-like
rascals, two of whom, while Hercu-
les was sleeping, made off with his
weapons; but, caught by him, were
strapped knees-upward to either end
of a yoke, and so borne away by the
hero. Their drollery, however, re-
gained them their liberty. Some of
them, having deceived Jupiter, were
changed to apes. They were the sub-
ject of a comic poem by Homer, and
of numerous grotesque representations
in Greek literature and sculpture.
Hippot'a-des: olus II, son of Hip'po-
tes. Identified by Homer (Od. x, 2)
and by Ovid (Met. xiv, 224) with
Eolus III, king of the Winds.
ton, Lycid. 96. See Com. § 113 (5).
Ja'nus; see p. 512. As god of good be-
ginnings, which ensure good endings,
Janus is a promoter of civilization. Gel-
lius (v, 12); Ovid (Fasti 1, 179). Ac-
cording to Macrobius (S. 1, 9-15) he
is Consivius the Sower. Compare
Dryden, Epist. to Congreve 7.
Mer'o-pe; see p. 514. Of Arcadia,
daughter of King Cypselus, of the
race of Callisto. Her husband, Cres-
phontes, the Heraclid, king of Mes-

Mil-

|

senia, had been slain with two of his
sons by rebellious nobles, and one
Polyphontes, leader of the revolt,
reigned in his stead. But Ep'y-tus,
the third son of Merope, who had
been concealed by her in Arcadia,
returned thence, in due season, unbe-
known to her and in disguise, to wreak
vengeance on the murderers of his
sire. Pretending to have slain Æpy-
tus, the stranger won the favor of
Polyphontes, but came near losing his
life at his mother's hands. A recog-
nition being happily effected, Æpytus,
aided by his mother, put Polyphontes
to death, and took possession of the
kingdom. Sources: Hygin. (Fab. 184);
Apollod. (ii, 8); Pausan. (ii, 18; iv. 3,
etc.); Aristotle (Poetics xiv, 9 on the
lost Cresphontes of Euripides). Poems:
Dramatized by Maffei (1713), Voltaire
(1743), Alfieri (1783), and by others;
but recently (1857) by Matthew Arnold,
whose Merope is at once a masterpiece
of classical invention and of poetic exe-
cution.

Pan'o-pe; see p. 518. Also, one of the
Nereids (Iliad xviii, 45). See Milton,
Lycid. 99.
