Eetion

We went to Thebe the strong city of Eetion, sacked it, and brought hither the spoil.

When he had gone through the city and had reached the Scaean gates through which he would go out on to the plain, his wife came running towards him, Andromache, daughter of great Eetion who ruled in Thebe under the wooded slopes of Mount Plakos, and was king of the Cilicians.

Then he cried to his horses, " Xanthos and Podagros, and you Aithon and goodly Lampos, pay me for your keep now and for all the honey-sweet grain with which Andromache daughter of great Eetion has fed you, and for she has mixed wine and water for you to drink whenever you would, before doing so even for me who am her own husband.

Eetion,worthy of honor, no man honors you.

Labda is with child, and her child will be a millstone

This oracle which was given to Eetion was in some way made known to the Bacchiadae.

May he perish, then, who began this deception among men — whether it was Dardanus, who introduced the mysteries of the Mother of the gods, or Eetion, who founded the orgies and rites of the Samothracians, or that Phrygian Midas, who, having learned them from the Odrysian, then passed on the artful deception to his subjects.

not, by Zeus, one he had bought, nor brought from home from his father, but one he had chosen out of the spoils when he took Thebe and slew Eetion, Hector's father-in-law.
