limbs of Dionysos to Apollon for burial (Orph. frag. 35 Kern ap. Clem. Al.
protr. 2. 18. 2 p. 14, 20 ff. Stahlin cited sicpra p. 218). Apollon, at the behest of
Zeus, arranged all the limbs in order (Orph. frag. 216 b Kern ap. Prokl. in Plat.

Delphic tripod [supra p. 218 ff.). The Titans had left intact the heart of
Dionysos, and this was rescued by Athena {Ox\i\\. frag. 210 Kern ap. Prokl. in

heart, opinions differed : some said that he placed it in a gypsum image of the
boy (Firm. Mat. 6. 4 cited supra i. 662), but the common view was that he
pounded it into a potion and gave it to Semele to drink, that she conceived
thereby, and that Zagreus thus came to life again as Dionysos (Hyg.fab. 167
