Hi'merus
(
*(/Imeros), the personification of longing love, is first mentioned by Hesiod (
Hes. Th. 201), where he and Eros appear as the companions of Aphrodite.
He is sometimes seen in works of art representing erotic circles; and in the temple of Aphrodite at Megara, he was represented by Scopas, together with Eros and Pothus. (
Paus. 1.43.6.)
