In book 3 of an epic by Quintus of Smyrna, this character scratches at her breasts so fiercely that they drip blood and milk. Though the poem is in Latin, this woman claims to be writing Greek with "barbarian hand" in the third letter of Ovid's Heroides. In an older text, her only speech is a lament which leads surrounding women to grieve on the same pretense as her, but "each for their own sorrows." This widow of Mynes lost three brothers during the siege of (*) Lyrnessus, her home city. The heralds Talthybius and Eurybates seize this prisoner to compensate for a similarly-named daughter of Chryses, a priest of Apollo. Patroclus was especially kind to, for 10 points, what woman whose seizure by Agamemnon makes Achilles really mad at the start of the Iliad?
