The gloomy monarch of th’ infernal dead

Shudder’d: the sub-tartarean Titans heard

E’en where they stood, with Saturn in the midst:

They heard appall’d the unextinguish’d rage

Of tumult, and the din of dreadful war.

But now when Jove had gather’d all his strength,

And grasp’d his weapons, bolts, and bickering flames,

He from the mount Olympus’ topmost ridge

Leap’d at a bound, and smote him: hiss’d at once

The horrible monster’s heads enormous, scorch’d
