Uprose, [228]beneath his everlasting feet
The great Olympus trembled, and earth groan’d.
From either god a burning radiance caught
The darkly azured ocean: from the flash
Of lightnings, and that monster’s darted flame,
Hot thunderbolts, and blasts of fiery winds.
Earth, air, sea, glow’d: the billows, heaved on high,
Foam’d round the shores, and dash’d on every side
Beneath the rush of gods. Concussion wild
And unappeasable uprose: aghast
