Scylla \Scyl"la\, n.
   A dangerous rock on the Italian coast opposite the whirpool
   Charybdis on the coast of Sicily, -- both personified in
   classical literature as ravenous monsters. The passage
   between them was formerly considered perilous; hence, the
   saying ``Between Scylla and Charybdis,'' signifying a great
   peril on either hand.
