176 Όδυσσεύς (fr. 35)
11 έάν δέ κριόν, Φρίξος For the story of Phrixos and his sister Helle
and their escape on the back of a golden ram, see LIMC VII. 1.398-404. The
reference to the golden lamb of Atreus in the previous line naturally suggests
the golden ram of Phrixos, which in turn leads logically to the golden fleece.
αν δέ κωδάριον, Ίάσων For Jason and his journey to Colchis to obtain
the golden fleece, see LIMC V. 1.629-38. The fleece taken by Jason was in fact
that of the ram ridden by Phrixos, so this reference is a logical progression
from the first half of the line.
