Egeria f sg (genitive Egeriae); first declension

1. (Roman mythology) A mythological figure, a water nymph said to have married the second King of Rome, Numa Pompilius, and to have inspired him in making laws
   • 8 CE, Ovidius, Metamorphoses 15.547–551:

     Non tamen Egeriae luctus aliena levare
     damna valent; montisque iacens radicibus imis
     liquitur in lacrimas, donec pietate dolentis
     mota soror Phoebi gelidum de corpore fontem
     fecit et aeternas artus tenuavit in undas.

     But the woes of others did not have the strength to lift Egeria's griefs; and lying at the lowest roots of a mountain she melted into tears, until, moved by the faithfulness of her suffering, the sister of Phoebus made from her body a cool spring, and weakened her limbs into eternal streams.

2. a female given name, equivalent to English Egeria
