Origo operis Frazeriani fuit mythus late notus, multis modis repetitus, de iuvene qui veterem regem interficit regnoque succedit. Incipit a successione regum Nemorensium fano Dianae iuxta Ariciam institutorum. Titulus autem ex Aeneidos libro sexto deducitur, in quo Aeneam et Sibyllam, ut in regnum inferorum intrent, ramum aureum praeferre oportet.
