His son beat Paeon in a race at Olympia, which meant Epeius became this man's successor while Paeon went into exile. Other sources say he was the father of Aetolus and Narcissus, though in the best-known myth involving him, this son of Calyce has 50 daughters. After a single kiss on Mount Latmos in his sleep, he is said to have begged Zeus for eternal youth and immortality. For 10 points, name this shepherd-king of Elis who was granted undying youth in eternal slumber, the beloved of Selene and subject of an epic poem by Keats.
