GALANTHIS,

The waiting Maid of Alcmena, who deliver'd her Mistriss from the Inchantments of Juno, who would not suffer her to be delivered of a Child, whom she had got by Jupiter. But Galanthis percei∣ving the Sorcery of Juno, came running to her, and said, her Mistriss was brought to bed, whereupon Juno unfastened her Charms. Notwithstanding, Juno having afterwards dis∣covered that she had been cozened, in revenge thereof changed Galanthis into a Weasel, who brings forth her young at her Mouth, where∣with she had offended in telling a Lye, to procure the lying in of Alcmena, to whom Juno bore hatred.
