The river Phlegethon, which is a stream of lava rolling in its torrent clashing rocks, also builds a large lake boiling with water and mud.
Phlegethon comes to the edge of the Acherusian lake, but does not mingle with its water and neither does the Styx, which coming close to the Acherusian Lake, passes round in a circle and falls back into Tartarus under the name of Cocytus.
