[3] καὶ τί δεινόν, ὦ Ἥρα, μειράκιον οὕτω καλὸν μεταξὺ πίνοντα καταφιλεῖν καὶ ἥδεσθαι ἀμφοῖν καὶ τῷ φιλήματι καὶ τῷ νέκταρι; ἢν γοῦν ἐπιτρέψω αὐτῷ κἂν ἅπαξ φιλῆσαί σε, οὐκέτι μέμψῃ μοι προτιμότερον τοῦ νέκταρος οἰομένῳ τὸ φίλημα εἶναι.

Ἥρα
Παιδεραστῶν οὗτοι λόγοι. ἐγὼ δὲ μὴ οὕτω μανείην, ὡς τὰ χείλη προσενεγκεῖν τῷ μαλθακῷ τούτῳ Φρυγὶ οὕτως ἐκτεθηλυμένῳ.

Ζεύς
μή μοι λοιδοροῦ, ὦ γενναιοτάτη, τοῖς παιδικοῖς: οὑτοσὶ γὰρ ὁ θηλυδρίας, ὁ βάρβαρος, ὁ μαλθακός ἡδίων ἐμοὶ καὶ ποθεινότερος — οὐ βούλομαι δὲ εἰπεῖν, μή σε παροξύνω ἐπὶ πλέον.

Ἥρα
