| | It has also been told that Celeus 1 wished to kill Triptolemus on the latter's return, but when his intentions came to Demeter's knowledge, she handed over the kingdom to Triptolemus, who called the city Eleusis after his father, and established those sacred rites in honor of Demeter, which are called Thesmophoria. | | | According to the Argives, Trochilus was a priest of Demeter, who fled from Argos and, having come to Attica, married an Eleusinian woman, by whom he had Triptolemus and Eubuleus. | | | As time went by, Triptolemus grew more than mortals usually do; so the master of the house started to watch Demeter, and when Eleusinus finally discovered terrified that Demeter was about to put the child in the fire, the goddess, being caught in the act, struck Eleusinus dead. |
