A daughter of Cheiron, is also called Euippe. Being with child by Aeolus, she fled to
      mount Pelion; but Cheiron made search after her; and in order that her condition might not
      become known, she prayed to be metamorphosed into a mare. Artemis granted the prayer, and in
      the form of a horse she was placed among the stars. (Eratosth. <hi rend="ital">Catust.</hi>
      18; <bibl n="Aristoph. Thes. 512">Aristoph. Thes. 512</bibl>; <bibl n="Hyg. Fab. 86">Hyg. Fab.
       86</bibl>.) Another account describes her metamorphosis as a punishment for having despised
      Artemis or divulged the counsels of the gods. (Hygin. <hi rend="ital">Poet. Astr.</hi>
      2.18.)</p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
