Thompson’s Greek citation for this address”) aims at the same sentence as his helpful-horse entry, and our wiring lands it one chapter off; the line closes the served account of the rout before Thebes: “Adrastus alone was saved by his horse Arion” — of the champions who marched, the one life brought out, and brought out by an animal, “That horse Poseidon begot on Demeter” [The Library (Bibliotheca), BOOK III, ch. VI]. A second served rescue is avian, verified by reading: Sigurd, tasting the dragon’s heart-blood, “straightway he knew the voice of all fowls”, and the first use the birds make of being understood is to save his life — “There lies Regin, minded to beguile the man who trusts in him” — whereupon Sigurd strikes off the betrayer’s head first [The Story of the Volsungs (Volsunga Saga), XIX]. Rescue by carrying and rescue by warning: the animal saves with its body in Greece, with its knowledge in the north. Thompson’s Panchatantra, Buddhist, Chinese, and Duala authorities all sit unresolved; two verified pages carry the address today, both shared with neighboring motifs — on a thin shelf the same lines must do double duty, and say so.
