Hymen

Hymen, or HYMENÆUS, in Greek Mythology, the god of marriage; but originally the word seems to have denoted only the bridal-song, which was sung by the companions of the bride as she went from her father's house to that of the bridegroom. The god Hymen is first mentioned by Sappho. The legends concerning his birth and descent are various; but he is generally said to be a son of Apollo and some one of the Muses. He is represented as a youth with wings, a bigger and graver Cupid, with a bridal torch and a veil in his hands.
