Postquam flumen Stygem auxilio Charonis transiit, Hercules in sedem ipsius Plutonis venit; ab eo petivit, ut Cerberum auferre sibi liceret. Pluto, qui de Hercule famam audiverat, eum benigne excepit, et facultatem quam ille petebat libenter dedit. Imperavit tamen Herculi ipsi, ubi res imperatas ab Eurystheo fecerat, Cerberum in Orcum rursus reducere. Hercules hoc ei pollicitus est, et Cerberum, quem non sine magno periculo manibus prehenderat, summo cum labore ex Orco in lucem et ad urbem Eurysthei traxit.
