And the Golden-haired spake from his shrine sweet-breathing: + 

“Thou must voyage afar o’er a sea surf-seething, + 

From the shore of Lerna in exile sped, + 

To a sea-ringed land of pasture, where showered + 

By the King of the Gods omnipotent-powered + 

Was a golden snow, when forth of the head + 

Of Zeus by the axe of Hephaistus sundered + 

Athena leapt, and her shout far thundered, + 

That Heaven and Earth-mother quaked with dread.” + 
