[382] Χάρις is made wife of Hephaistos by a more transparent allegory than we find elsewhere in H.; “ὅτι τῆι τέχνηι τὴν χάριν προσεῖναι δεῖ”, Schol. In Od. 8.266366 Heph. is wedded to Aphrodite, whose attendants are the “Χάριτες”; but that passage is later and un-Homeric. λιπαροκρ́ηδεμνος, see App. G, § 11.
