Milo carried a bull, four years old, on his shoulders through the stadium at Olympia; he also arrested a chariot in full career. One day, tearing asunder a pine tree, the two parts, rebounding, caught his hands and held him fast; in which state he was devoured by wolves.

POLYDORE, the name by which Belarius called prince Guiderius, while he lived in a cave in the Welsh mountains. His brother, prince Arviragus, went by the name of Cadwal.— Shakespeare: Cymbeline (1605).
