εἰς ὃν λόγος καθελκυσθῆναι τὴν Ἀργὼ, καὶ πρὸς τὸ Τυρρηνῶν διασωθῆναι πέλαγος. Οἱ γὰρ Ἀργοναῦται τὸν Αἰήτην φεύγοντες, οὐ τὸν αὐτὸν πλοῦν ἐν τῇ ἐπανόδῳ ἐποιήσαντο. Περαιωθέντες δὲ τὴν ὑπὲρ Σκύθας θάλασσαν, διὰ τῶν τῇδε ποταμῶν ἀφίκοντο εἰς Ἰταλῶν ὅρια, καὶ χειμάσαντες ἐνταῦθα πόλιν ἔκτισαν, Ἤμονα προσαγορευομένην. Τοῦ δὲ θέρους ἐπικαταλαβόντος, συμπραξάντων αὐτοῖς τῶν ἐπιχωρίων, ἀμφὶ τοὺς τετρακοσίους σταδίους ὑπὸ μηχανῆς ἕλκοντες τὴν Ἀργὼ διὰ γῆς, ἐπὶ τὸν Ἄκυλιν ποταμὸν ἤγαγον, ὃς τῷ Ἠριδανῷ συμβάλλει: Ἠριδανὸς δὲ εἰς τὴν κατὰ Ἰταλοὺς θάλασσαν τὰς ἐκβολὰς ἔχει.
