Needs clarification

edit

1. She was "the daughter of Danaus", but "was also the daughter of Thestius and Eurythemis"? Is this a second Hypermnestra? Is there any relationship between the two?

2. "[H]er husband, Lynceus, honored her wish to remain a virgin", yet they "began a dynasty of Argive kings". "Remain" would seem to be the wrong word, or perhaps it needs to be modified by "on their wedding night". 24.128.188.152 (talk) 19:25, 29 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
