Anaxarete
A girl of Salamis, who so arrogantly rejected the addresses of Iphis, a youth of ignoble birth, that he hanged himself at her door. She saw the spectacle without emotion, and was changed into stone. Mr.
Wiffen makes allusion to the circumstance in his translation of Garcilasso de la Vega: "Else tremble at the fate forlorn Of Anaxarete, who spurn'd The weeping Iphis from her gate; Who, scoffing long, relenting late, Was to a statue turn'd."
