- hypertexthero 8y agoFrom [Websters](1) dictionary: Liard \Li"ard\ (l[imac]"[~e]rd), a. [OF. liart, LL. liardus gray, dapple.] Gray. [Obs.] --Chaucer. Note: Used by Chaucer as an epithet of a gray or dapple gray horse.

Their children are Aeetes, Perses, Pasiphae, and Circe. One of her many Oceanid sisters is Amphitrite (the wife of Poseidon). Perse is also closely identified with Hecate. * * * To me it reads as ”Life, love, loss.”
