SOUTH WIND

Is it true, Zephyrus, about Zeus and this heifer [*] that Hermes is escorting by sea to Egypt? Did he fall for her and have his way with her?

WEST WIND

Yes, Notus; only she wasn’t a heifer then, but the daughter of Inachus, the river. But now Hera, in her jealousy, has turned her into this, because she saw Zeus was very much in love with her.

SOUTH WIND

Is he still in love with her now she’s a heifer?

WEST WIND

Very much so, my good fellow. That’s why he’s sent her to Egypt, and told us he doesn’t want any rough seas, until she swims across, so that, when she has her baby there—she’s expecting at the moment—both mother and child [*] may become gods.
