Augeas

They and their chariots with them had gone to the games and were to run for a tripod, but King Augeas took them, and sent back their driver grieving for the loss of his horses.

He was son-in-law to Augeas, having married his eldest daughter, golden-haired Agamede, who knew the virtues of every herb which grows upon the face of the earth.

but that whenever he came to Argos, he was bidden to carry off the dung of Augeas, or to hunt the serpents, or to drive away the birds, that they might not trouble the farmers in Stymphalus, or to do other such mean and lowly tasks at command;

And indeed it was not much later before the man who betrayed his friend, the king of the Epeians, saw his land with all its possessions, his own city, sink into a deep channel of destruction beneath unyielding fire and blows of iron.

The laws of Zeus urge me to sing of that extraordinary contest-place which Heracles founded by the ancient tomb of Pelops with its six altars, after he killed Cteatus, the flawless son of Poseidon and Eurytus too, with a will to exact from the unwilling Augeas, strong and violent, the wages for his menial labor.
