A twenty-third prince, named Cansala'yana's, is added in fome gene- 

 alogical tables. 



This is manifestly the fame floty with that of Cepheus and Cassio- 

 pea, Perseus and Andromeda, The firft name was written Capheus 

 or Caphyeus by the Arcadians (a), and is clearly taken from Cape'ya, 

 the termination nds being frequently rejected : fome alTert, that he left no 

 male iffue ; and Apollodorus only fays, that he had a daughter, named 

 Sterope, the fame, I prefume, with Andromeda. The wife of Ca- 

 pe'ya was either defcended herfelf from Casyapa, or was named Ca~- 

 syapi' after her marriage with a prince of that lineage. Pa'rasica is 

 declared in the Pur anas to have been fo called, becaufe he came 

 from para, or beyond, that is from beyond the river Cal), or from the 

 weft of it j fince it appears from the context, that he travelled from 

 well: to eaft : the countries on this Jide of the Nile, with refpeci to 



(a) Paufan, Arcad.
