Loukianos, DMar (Dialogi Marini) 14:

The hideous monster now drew near, and would have swallowed her [Andromeda]: but the youth [Perseus], hovering above, smote him with the drawn scimetar in his right hand, and with his left uncovered the petrifying Gorgon’s head: in one moment the monster was lifeless; all of him that had met that gaze was turned to stone (original Greek).
