Thebe, Alexander's wife and cousin (or half-sister, as the daughter of Jason of Pherae), concealed her three brothers in the house during the day, had the dog removed when Alexander had gone to rest, and, having covered the steps of the ladder with wool, brought up the young men to her husband's chamber.
Thiva, istri dan sepupu Alexandros (atau saudara perempuan tirinya, sebagai putri Iason dari Ferai), menyembunyikan ketiga saudara laki-lakinya di rumah pada siang hari, mengusir anjing itu ketika Alexandros pergi beristirahat, dan, setelah menutupi tangga dengan wol, membawa pria-pria muda itu ke kamar suaminya.
