Beroe, nurse of Semele, whose shape Hera took in order to destroy the Theban princess. The goddess told Semele to ask Zeus to come to her as he comes to Hera, so that she would know what pleasure it is to sleep with a god. At her suggestion Semele made this request to Zeus, and was smitten by a thunderbolt.[5]
Beroe, wife of Doryclus, was an old lady among the Trojan women who followed Aeneas to exile, and who burned the ships in Italy, having been persuaded to do so by Iris, who appeared in the shape of Beroe.[6]
