Creusa

Ascanius, the son of neas and Creusa, and the companion of his father's wanderings from Troy to Italy.

Wild with grief and anxiety he wandered at random through the city till suddenly he fancied he saw Creusa.

Creusa tells how she has come to consult the oracle about a friend who bore a son to the god and exposed him.

The ruler of Olympus willeth not that Creusa should bear thee company in thy journey.

The social organization of the state begins with Erechtheus, who is aided by his wife Praxithea, and his daughter Creusa.
