b. τράπε δὲ Κυκνέα μάχα: ἐτράπη δὲ καὶ ὑπεχώρησεν ἐν τῇ πρὸς τὸν Κύκνον μάχῃ ὁ μέγιστος Ἡρακλῆς, παρορμήσαντος Ἄρεος τὸν Κύκνον. ἐμαχέσατο δὲ Ἡρακλῆς ὅτι κακόξενος ἦν Κύκνος καὶ ἐν παρόδῳ τῆς Θεσσαλίας οἰκῶν ἀπεκαρατόμει τοὺς παριόντας ναὸν τῷ Ἀπόλλωνι βουλόμενος ἐκ τῶν κεφαλῶν οἰκοδομῆσαι, καὶ αὐτῷ παριόντι ἐπιβουλεῦσαι ἠθέλησε. συστάσης οὖν αὐτοῖς μάχης ἐφυγάδευσεν Ἡρακλῆς, συμβαλλομένου Ἄρεος τῷ παιδὶ Κύκνῳ. ἀλλ᾿ ὕστερον Ἡρακλῆς καὶ τοῦτον ἀπέκτεινε. Στησίχορος (fr. 12) ἐν τῷ ἐπιγραφομένῳ Κύκνῳ ἱστορεῖ.
