Mean while to Athens your swift Ship does run; There tell the wondring Crowd what you have done. How the mix’d Prodigy you did subdue, The Beast and Man, how with one stroke you slew. Describe the Labyrinth, and how, taught by me, You scap’d from all those perplext Mazes free. —ARIADNE’S LETTER TO THESEUS, OVID’S HEROIDES
