This user of the Canathus well, born on Samos, stages a deceptive seduction in a golden cloud atop Mount (*) Ida during the Trojan War, and had the epithet "bopis," meaning "cow-eyed." This goddess created a cloud to divert Ixion's attempted rape, sent a gadfly to torment the ex-human cow Io, and put the slain watchman Argus's thousand eyes on her sacred bird, the peacock. For 10 points, name this mother of Hebe, goddess of childbirth, and wife of Zeus.
