Revered and mighty, from his awful head
Whom Jove brought forth, in warlike armour dressed,
Golden, all radiant! Wonder strange possessed
The everlasting gods that shape to see,
Shaking a javelin keen, impetuously
Rush from the crest of Ægis-bearing Jove.
Fearfully Heaven was shaken, and did move
Beneath the might of the cerulean-eyed;
Earth dreadfully resounded far and wide;
And lifted from its depths, the sea swelled high
