The fifty daughters of Danaus flee to Argos to escape marriage to their cousins, the sons of the king of Egypt. When they arrive, they plead for protection and their fate is put to a vote by the king of Argos. The people vote in the women’s favor and the Egyptians’ request to surrender them is rejected.
