Description
based on:Hylas whom Herakles loved, while off on a mission to fetch water, was kidnapped by Nymphai because of his beauty.
Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 1. 117
...But Hylas now leant over to one side to dip his ewer in: and as soon as the water was gurgling loudly round the ringing bronze she threw her left arm round his neck in her eagerness to kiss his gentle lips. Then with her right hand she drew his elbow down and plunged him in midstream . . .
Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 1. 1334 ff
