- beautiful-cheeked
Meaning
Hippa is beautiful-cheeked at XLVIII.4, where she is located beside holy Tmolus in the account of Dionysus’ nursing. The adjective agrees with her accusative name. It supplies visual praise rather than a second nurse or a separate title whose identity must be reconstructed.
