Divine fear seized Hermes by his smooth knees; Zeus spoke further, with stronger voice: "A virtuous woman, especially if she loves another man, can resist Apollo. But surely and always a stupid woman will resist him. "Eryfile is stupid, not virtuous; that's the reason she resisted. Therefore you cheated the Radiant, and you shall not have Lampecja.

"It's astonishing that love can nestle in the heart of a merchants-patron. I am willing to give you Lampecja the more so because she is now quarrelling with Featusa.

Once, being sent on an errand by Zeus I don't remember what errand I was playing just over your Trinachija, and I perceived Lampecja, who, together with Featusa, watches your herds there. Since that time I have no peace. The thought about her is never absent from my mind. I love her and I sigh for her day and night.
