quote -"But more beautiful than Hellen was Penelope, the wife of Odysseus. When she walked among the suitors their knees became weak and they each desired to lay with her."-quote

Three most beautiful women in Greek mythology were Helen, Aphrodite and Persephone. Penelope was known as the most loyal.
