This gives the narrative of Apollonius of Tire. The subsequent source is the Lawrence Twine composition variant of Gower's story, The Pattern of Painful Adventures, dating from c. 1576, reproduced in 1607. in the play Pericles, the Prince of Tire, escapes Antioch and returns to Tire, since he realizes that Antiochus, the King of Antioch, is having a depraved illicit relationship with his little girl. Antiochus is resolved to execute him and seeks after him. Pericles escapes once more, first to Tire and afterward to Pentopolis. He leaves Tire under the watchful eye of his guide, Helicanus. On the way, the boat is destroyed and Pericles is the main survivor. While in Pentopolis, Pericles wins a competition where the prize is Thaisa, the delightful girl of Simonides.

Thaisa is pregnant now, and while in transit to Tire a tempest adrift achieves the introduction of her kid, whom Pericles calls Marina. Thaisa clearly kicks the bucket in labor. The lamenting Pericles seals her in a watertight casket and covers her adrift. The final resting place drifts on the ocean lastly winds up on the shore of Ephesus. Cerimon resuscitates Thaisa. She erroneously accepts that Pericles has been lost adrift and she submits herself as a votress (a religious recluse) in the Temple of Diana. Meanwhile, Pericles has visited Tarsus and left Marina with Cleon, the legislative leader of Tarsus, and his better half, Dionyza, who have embraced to raise her. There is then a long term hole in the activity. Marina is presently an excellent young lady. Dionyza is desirous of her and decides to have her slaughtered. She trains a worker to take her out in a boat and murder her, yet before he can do that she is caught by privateers. The worker returns and reveals to Dionyza that he's slaughtered her. Cleon assembles a landmark to her. At the point when Pericles visits Tarsus he sees the landmark and falls into a pit of gloom. Meanwhile, the privateers have offered Marina to a massage parlor in Mitylene yet she is very quickly liberated by the lead representative, Lysimachus.
