in fabulous history, one of the descendants of Eolus, married Merope, one of the Pleiades, who bore him Glaucus. He reigned at Epyra in Peionnecus, and was a very crafty man. Others say, that he was a Trojan secretary, who was punished for discovering vering secrets of state; and others again, that he was a notorious robber, killed by Theseus. However, all the poets agree that he was punished in Tartarus for his crimes, by rolling a great stone to the top of a hill, which constantly recoiled, and, rolling down incessantly, renewed his labour.
