Orations
Mortal woman who bore Eudorus to Hermes, cited from Homer
But perhaps none the less were they likely in that city to expect there would be children such as Homer has named Eudorus, son of Hermes and Polydora, fondly calling him, I think, after his birth, maiden-born, whom fair Polydora bore in the dance.
Iliad
Daughter of Peleus who bore Menesthios to the river-god Spercheios, later married to Boros.
Fair Polydora daughter of Peleus bore him to ever-flowing Spercheios - a woman mated with a god - but he was called son of Boros son of Perieres, with whom his mother was living as his wedded wife, and who gave great wealth to gain her.
