“In the "Metamorphoses", Ovid gives a brief description of Hylonome: In the high woods there was none comelier of all the centaur-girls, and she alone by love and love’s sweet words and winning ways held Cyllarus, yes, and the care she took to look her best (so far as that may be with limbs like that).”
