atlantes

One of these compartments, known as an Atlantes, is shown in the annexed woodcut.

Some of the same family were to be found among the Atlantes of Mauritania, and are represented as having the shape of swans.

This country was called Mauritania; and was supposed to have been possessed by the Atlantes and Gorgons.

Roger was lying on a bed of soft moss, when Atlantes, for so he took her to be, stood before him.

Then Atlantes broke the spell and disappeared, together with the castle, and the prisoners trooped forth, Rogero among them.
