nomen Bebrycia duxere a virgine colles, hospitis Alcidae crimen, qui, sorte laborum Geryonae peteret cum longa tricorporis arva, possessus Baccho saeva Bebrycis in aula lugendam formae sine virginitate reliquit Pyrenen, letique deus, si credere fas est, causa fuit leti miserae deus.
These mountains took their name from Pyrene, daughter of Bebryx and victim of Hercules. For Hercules, in the course of his appointed Labours, was travelling to the distant land of three-bodied Geryon,d when he was mastered by wine in the savage court of Bebryx,e and left Pyrene robbed of her maidenhood; her beauty was a cause for mourning. The god (if it is not sinful to believe it), the god was the cause of the poor maidens death.
