A Creation Myth from the Metamorphoses by Ovid

Zeus, king of the gods, was legendary for his cheating ways and his many affairs both on Olympus and on Earth. His wife Hera was justifiably jealous and often followed Zeus to try to prevent him from cheating on her. Zeus was particularly fond of spending time with the mountain nymphs, beautiful maidens that were neither human nor god, but something wonderful in between.
