Hermes is a good god, but growing up as a child, he was quite sneaky. He stole from his brother and made a sneaky trade to take over Apollo's job. Everyone has their bad moments, and that's what happened with Hermes. Overall, he is a good god but when he was a child he was not. He made up for his wrongs and he came clean for stealing. He told the truth and admitted he stole the cows.
" 'I did take your cows brother. But I didn't know they were yours. How could I have? And they are quite safe, except or one. Wishing to begin my life with an act of piety, I sacrificed her to the twelve gods.' "(45)
