Page "Hera" Paragraph 75

The goddesses chose to place the matter before Zeus, who, not wanting to favor one of the goddesses, put the choice into the hands of Paris, a Trojan prince.

After bathing in the spring of Mount Ida ( where Troy was situated ), the goddesses appeared before Paris.

The goddesses undressed and presented themselves to Paris naked, either at his request or for the sake of winning.

Still, Paris could not decide, as all three were ideally beautiful, so they resorted to bribes.
