| | Cygnus |
 | | Cycnus could not believe that his faithful friend was dead and did all he could to collect the charred bones from the river bed, so that he could give Phaethon a proper burial. | | | One legend says that Cycnus was the friend of Phaethon, the mortal son of Helios (Apollo), who tried to drive the Sun Chariot for one day. | | | Phaethon could not manage the fiery steeds and became a menace along the celestial highway, endangering the heavenly vault and the palaces of the gods as well as the Earth and its inhabitants. |
