EUROPA---Jupiter, King of the Gods, fell in love
with Europa, a beautiful daughter of the Phoenician
King Agenor. In order to win her he transformed
himself into a beautiful white bull and mingled with a
herd of cattle near the seashore where Europa and her
maidens were. The girl noticed the bull, which was so
gentle that she crowned him with garlands and finally
climbed on to his back. Whereupon, the bull plunged
into the sea and swam with her to Crete, where Jupiter
again took his own form. This float shows Europa
riding away on the bull's back.
