[180] εἵνεκα μαντοσύνης: Apollodorus (1. 9. 21) likewise states that he was blinded for revealing to men the counsels of Zeus. The Schol. mentions another story that he was cursed by Aeetes and blinded by Helios for saving the sons of Phrixus. Servius (on Aen. 3. 209) says that he was blinded by Boreas for his conduct to his first two sons whom he cruelly tortured for their treatment of his second wife (cf. Diod. 4. 44). Sophocles (Antig. 970) says these two sons were blinded by Eidothea.
