Echo was cursed by Hera to repeat what is said; she loved Narcissus and faded as her love could not be expressed; the suffering of his lovers both Echo and the youth Ameinias brought about Nemesis, who saw that though others loved him he could only love himself and so cursed him to love his own image.
