Pegasus \Peg"a*sus\, n. [L., fr. Gr. Ph`gasos.]
1. (Gr. Myth.) A winged horse fabled to have sprung from the
body of Medusa when she was slain. He is noted for
causing, with a blow of his hoof, Hippocrene, the
inspiring fountain of the Muses, to spring from Mount

associated with the Muses, and with ideas of poetic
inspiration.
