a tragic and comic poet, disciple to Prodicus and Socrates, applauded in Plato's Dialogues for his virtue and beauty. His first tragedy obtained the prize; and he was crowned in the presence of upwards of 30,000 men, the 4th year of the 90th Olympiad. There is nothing now extant of his, except a few quotations in Aristotle, Athenaeus, and others.
