Hyperion’s Son, the God who bringeth the day,

Commanded his children: “See that your debt ye repay.

Of all men be ye first to uprear in your isle in my sight

To the Goddess an altar: her godhead do ye revere

With offerings holy, filling the souls with delight

Of Allfather and Her of the thunderous-crashing spear.”

It is Reverence, Forethought’s daughter, that maketh dear

To the spirits of men high courage and joy of the fight.
