Ὀδυρόμεναι Φαέθοντα] Μυθεύεται γὰρ οὕτως· ὅτι ποτὲ ὑπὸ τοῦ πατρὸς Ἡλίου πιστευθεὶς ὁ Φαέθων τοῦ ἐλάσαι τὸ ἅρμα, ἀτακτότερον αὐτὸ φέρων τὴν πρώτην ἔκαυσε ζώνην τὴν κεκαυμένην. Ὀργισθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ζεὺς ἐκεραύνωσεν αὐτόν· ἐκατηνέχθη ἐπὶ τὸν Ἠριδανόν. Αἱ οὖν ἀδελφαὶ κλαίουσαι αὐτὸν, μετεβλήθησαν εἰς αἰγείρους· τὸ δὲ φερόμενον παῤ αὐταῖς δάκρυ, οὐ πήγνυται, ποιεῖ τὸν ἤλεκτρον.
