Aeschylus

Aeschylus, Volume 1. Smyth, Herbert Weir, translator. London; New York: William Heinemann; G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1922.

  1. Now tell me his wisely-given name.[*](The epithet, properly applicable to the venerable, Danaus, is transferred to his name, because, to the Greek, name often connoted personality. So the dreaded name of Demogorgon.)
Chorus
  1. Danaus: and he has a brother with fifty sons.
