ASCLEPIUS

He does, by Zeus, for I’m your better.

HERACLES

How, you crackbrain? Because Zeus blasted you with his thunderbolt for your impious doings, In resurrecting men from the dead (cf. Pindar, Pythians, 3, 54). According to Lucian, The Dance 45, one of these was Tyndareus, while other authorities (see Apollodorus, 3.10.3) mention Capaneus, Lycurgus, Hippolytus, Hy- menaeus and Glaucus. The version of Diodorus (4.71.1-3) is that Asclepius’ skill so lowered the death-rate that Hades accused him before Zeus of trespassing on his preserves, and Zeus in anger struck him down with the thunderbolt. and you’ve now received immortality because he relented and pitied you?

ASCLEPIUS
