 | | In the pool lived the naiad Salmacis, who unlike other NAIADS, was not seen in the retinue of Artemis, since she preferred to gather flowers rather than go hunting. |
 | | On seeing him, Salmacis fell immediately in love and declared openly her love to him, but since he refused both love and kisses, she turned away and left, pretending to accept his rejection. |
 | | But then Salmacis appeared again in the waters, holding him fast, stealing kisses, and embracing him; and the more he tried to escape, the more she clung to him. |
