Titanomachy
Ησίοδος, Θεογονία, Τιτανομαχία - στ. 674
“...Και τότε αυτοί ενάντια στους Τιτάνες στάθηκαν μες στην ολέθρια μάχη και βράχια απόκρημνα στα στιβαρά τα χέρια τους βαστούσαν. Μα οι Τιτάνες πρόθυμα απ᾽ την άλλη τις φάλαγγές τους δυναμώνανε. Κι οι δυο πλευρές φανέρωναν της δύναμης και των χεριών τους κατορθώματα κι ο πόνος ο απέραντος ολόγυρα φοβερά αντηχούσε, αντιβοούσε δυνατά η γη και στέναζε μαζί κι ο ουρανός ο ευρύς καθώς σειόταν, κι απ᾽ τα θεμέλια τιναζότανε ο ψηλός ο Όλυμπος...”
Hesiod, Theogony, Titanomachy - lyr. 674
“...They then were pitted against the Titans in deadly combat, holding huge rocks in their sturdy hands. But the Titans on the other side made strong their phalanxes with alacrity, and both sides were showing work of hand and biē at the same time, and the boundless sea re-echoed terribly, and earth resounded loudly, and the broad sky groaned, being shaken, and vast Olympus was convulsed from its base under the violence of the immortals...”
