Schol. Homer Iliad, 6.76 (Hellenistic-Byzantine)
Drakontes lick out the ears of the baby twins Helenus and Cassandra in the temple of Apollo Thymbraeus, conferring the gift of prophecy.
λέγεται τὸν Ἕλενον δίδυμον εἶναι
Κασάνδρας, τεχθέντα<ς> δὲ καταλειφθῆναι μόνους ἐν τῷ τοῦ Θυμ-
βραίου Ἀπόλλωνος ἱερῷ, καὶ δράκοντας ἀποψῆσαι τὴν ἀκοήν, καὶ
τὴν μαντείαν ἐντεῦθεν λαβεῖν.
