  5. Story about Zeus and Hera     Zeus and his wife, Hera, were always quarreling because Zeus was unfaithful to her.  One day, Hera, plotting against Zeus, drugged his drink, and bound him while he was sleeping.  Zeus could do nothing because he did not have his thunderbolt, until the Hundred-handed Briareus, came to his rescue and untied the knots binding him.  Once released, Zeus took his thunderbolt and hung Hera in the sky, binding her with golden chains.  She wept and wept until Zeus could not take it anymore and freed her after she promised to never rebel again.  Zeus also promised to mend his ways.
