Crossword-Solution: APSYRTUS 8 letters, 1 clue 🏆 scrabble score: 13

Nor had he ever so slight a fear of his daughters, that they would form some hateful scheme, nor of his son Apsyrtus; but this curse was being fulfilled in the children of Chalciope.

Now some of the Colchians, in a vain search, passed out from Pontus through the Cyanean rocks; but the rest went to the river, and them Apsyrtus led, and, turning aside, he entered the mouth called Fair.

And through this Apsyrtus and his Colchians rushed with all speed; but the heroes went upwards far away towards the highest part of the island.

Now in one of them was a sacred temple; and on the other they landed, avoiding the host of Apsyrtus; for the Colchians had left these islands out of many within the river, just as they were, through reverence for the daughter of Zeus; but the rest, thronged by the Colchians, barred the ways to the sea.

And so on other islands too, close by, Apsyrtus left his host as far as the river Salangon and the Nestian land.
