r her brother \b \cf15 \ATXht10101 Absyrtus\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 , whom \b \cf15 \ATXht11000 Jason\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 killed by a ruse. For this reason, \b \cf15 \ATXht8 Zeus\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 , when the \b \i \cf15 \ATXht10133 Argo\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 \i0 began to
descend toward the Ionian Sea, did not allow it to pass beyond the sanctuary at \b \cf15 \ATXht10411 Dodona\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 : Jason and Medea first had to be purified by the sorceress \b \cf15 \ATXht10324 Circe\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 , whom they could reach at
her home in the Tyrrhenian Sea by sailing along the course of the Eridanus. So, the \i Argo\i0 entered the river, shrouded in the mists caused by the tragic end of \b \cf15 \ATXht11620 Phaeton\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 , and followed it until its waters tumbled i
nto the Rhone, which flowed rapidly into the Ausonian Sea. Nearby those places passed the road known as the Heraclean Way, as it was the route \b \cf15 \ATXht310 Heracles\b0 \ATXht0 \cf7 had taken on his return from the edges of the world with the cattl
e he had stolen from the monster \b \cf15 \ATXht10702 Geryon\b0 \cf7 \ATXht0 .
