[2] The story has it that in the old Stymphalos dwelled Tēmenos, the son of Pelasgos, and that Hērā was reared by this Tēmenos, who himself established three sanctuaries for the goddess, and gave her three surnames: when she was still a virgin [ parthénos], Girl [ Pais]; when married to Zeus he called her Adult [ Teleia] ; when for some cause or other she quarrelled with Zeus and came back to Stymphalos, Tēmenos named her Widow [ Khēra]. This is the account which, to my own knowledge, the Stymphalians give of the goddess.
