[21] λέγεται δέ τινα φῦλα Φρύγια οὐδαμοῦ δεικνύμενα, ὥσπερ οἱ Βερέκυντες. καὶ Ἀλκμὰν λέγει “ Φρύγιον ηὔλησε μέλος τὸ Κερβήσιον.
” καὶ βόθυνός τις λέγεται Κερβήσιος ἔχων ὀλεθρίους ἀποφοράς: ἀλλ᾽ οὗτός γε δείκνυται, οἱ δ᾽ ἄνθρωποι οὐκέθ᾽ οὕτω λέγονται. Αἰσχύλος δὲ συγχεῖ ἐν τῇ Νιόβῃ: φησὶ γὰρ ἐκείνη μνησθήσεσθαι τῶν περὶ Τάνταλον “ οἷς ἐν Ἰδαίῳ πάγῳ
Διὸς πατρῴου βωμός ἐστι
”1 καὶ πάλιν “ Σίπυλον Ἰδαίαν ἀνὰ χθόνα.
”2 καὶ ὁ Τάνταλος λέγει“ σπείρω δ᾽ ἄρουραν δώδεχ᾽ ἡμερῶν ὁδόν,
Βερέκυντα χῶρον, ἔνθ᾽ Ἀδραστείας ἕδος
Ἴδη τε μυκηθμοῖσι καὶ βρυχήμασι
βρέμουσι μήλων, πᾶν τ᾽ ἐρέχθειον πέδον.
”3
