Jason came to Corinth with
Medea and then betrothed himself to Glauke, the
daughter of Creon king of Corinth. When Medea was
about to be exiled from Corinth by Creon, she
begged him to let her remain one day; upon gaining
her request, as a reward for the favor she sent her
children with gifts for Glauke, a dress and golden
head band. She tried them on and was consumed and
Creon, embracing his daughter, died too. Medea,
after killing her own children, riding in a chariot
with winged serpents, escaped to Athens where she
married Aigeus, the son of Pandion.
