TITHONOS


One of the mortals who found favour with Eos, who carried him offand obtained for him, as she did for all her mortal lovers, immortality. However, in the case of Tithonos, she had omitted to ask Zeus in addition for eternal youth for herlatest beau. As a result of this oversight, Tithonos grew old as time passed, andalthough Eos tried to love him as she had when he had been young andbeautiful, she eventually had him shut up in a chamber, from which only his voiceissued, like the chirp of a grasshopper;and indeed, it is said that he was transformedinto that very creature.
