 Libro sexto
Y como levantándose de la tierra a ella cercana vapores húmidos, y entrándose en las concavidades de los ojos de la estatua, y por la frialdad de la piedra se convierten en gotas de agua con semejanza de lágrimas, de aquí salió que los ignorantes tienen que Niobe hasta el día de hoy llora.
Tántalo quiere decir avaricia, y Euryanassa, abundancia o riqueza; destos nace la soberbia de los mortales (entendida por Niobe), de quien se sigue el menosprecio de los dioses, y el tener en poco a los amigos y a los pobres, y el olvido de los bienes recibidos de Dios.
Por Niobe se entiende la soberbia o osadía, porque viéndose ésta rica y de linaje, con muchos hijos y hijas, y muchos amigos y parientes, y honra que todos le hacían y estimaban, pensó sobrepujar a todo el humano poderío y tenerse por más bienaventurada que los dioses.

What we don't know is if the mother was Euryanassa, daughter of the River-god Pactolus; or Eurythemista, daughter of the River-god Xanthus; or Clytia, or even the Pleiad Dione...again, opinions differ on the identity of his wife.
Still, that doesn't really effect our story, one way or another.

 APPENDICES: Appendices
Urvasî is the bright flush of light overspreading the heaven before the sun rises, and is but another form of the many mythical beings of Greek mythology whose names take us back to the same idea or the same root.
As the dawn in the Vedic hymns is called Urûkî, the far-going (Têlephassa, Têlephos), so is she also Uruasî, the wide-existing or wide-spreading; as are Eurôpê, Euryanassa, Euryphassa, and many more of the sisters of Athênê and Aphroditê.
As such she is the mother of Vasishtha, the bright being, as Oidipous is the son of Iokastê; and although Vasishtha, like Oidipous, has become a mortal bard or sage, he is still the son of Mitra and Varuna, of night and day.
