“Nȳsiadas nymphās puerum quaerente novercā hanc frondem cūnīs opposuisse ferunt When his stepmother was searching for⟳ the boy, the nymphs of Nysa carried this foliage to set against his cradle. (The Nysiads used ivy leaves to hide the cradle of baby Dionysus [Roman Liber or Bacchus] from Juno – ever-hostile to the children her husband Jupiter fathered with others – including this son of Jupiter and Semele.)”
