Editing Jason (section)

===Sirens===
Chiron had told Jason that without the aid of [[Orpheus]], the Argonauts would never be able to pass the [[Siren (mythology)|Sirens]]—the same Sirens encountered by [[Odysseus]] in [[Homer]]'s [[epic poem]] the ''[[Odyssey]]''. The Sirens lived on three small, rocky islands called [[Sirenum scopuli]] and sang beautiful songs that enticed sailors to come to them, which would result in the wrecking of their ship on the islands. When Orpheus heard their voices, he drew his [[lyre]] and played music that was more beautiful and louder, drowning out the Sirens' bewitching songs.
