***
Lamia was a famous Grecian courtezan, daughter of Cleanora, and mistress to Demetrius Poliorcetes, at whose court she became particularly known by her extravagance, her intrigues, and her ascendancy over her lover's affections. She also distinguished herself as a player on the flute, and the admiration which she gained was paid no less to her personal charms, than to her wit, to the accomplishments of her mind, and to her superior skill in music and poetry.
