Many years ago I can remember reading about Hippolytus. He
was the son of Theseus and the Amazon Queen Hippolyta. Hippolytus was in today’s
parlance ` a cool dude’. He was handsome and good looking. Would he have fitted
into `One Direction’?
He fell in love with Artemis who was the goddess of the hunt
– but she didn’t like him. He married Phaedra who loved him lots and lots.
Phaedra died and Theseus asked Poseidon, the sea god, for
help. A sea monster frightened the horses of Hippolytus. The chariot overturned
and he died of his wounds.
