Fragment

What is this steep shore, washed round about by the sea foam, that I see? And there is the statue of a girl, wrought out of the actual shape of the rock, the work of a skilled hand. [Andromeda, fr. 125, form: Phillips K.M., Perseus and Andromeda, in “American Journal of Archaeology” 72, 1968.]
