ἀμφὶ δὲ πάσας
ἔπρεσε θεσπεσίας κεφαλὰς δεινοῖο πελώρου .
αὐτὰρ ἐπεὶ δή μιν δάμασεν πληγῇσιν ἱμάσσας ,
ἤριπε γυιωθείς , στενάχιζε δὲ γαῖα πελώρη .
φλὸξ δὲ κεραυνωθέντος ἀπέσσυτο τοῖο ἄνακτος
οὔρεος ἐν βήσσῃσιν ἀιδνῇς παιπαλοέσσῃς ,
πληγέντος . πολλὴ δὲ πελώρη καίετο γαῖα
ἀτμῇ θεσπεσίῃ καὶ ἐτήκετο κασσίτερος ὣς
τέχνῃ ὕπ᾽ αἰζηῶν ἐν ἐυτρήτοις χοάνοισι
θαλφθείς , ἠὲ σίδηρος , ὅ περ κρατερώτατός ἐστιν .
οὔρεος ἐν βήσσῃσι δαμαζόμενος πυρὶ κηλέῳ
τήκεται ἐν χθονὶ δίῃ ὑφ᾽ Ἡφαιστου παλάμῃσιν .

set
fire

the
dread
monster
'
s
divine
heads
.
But when he had subdued him , flogging him with blows ,
Typhoeos collapsed , crippled , and monstrous Gaia was groaning .
From the lightning-smote lord , a flame shot forth
in the mountain glens dark and craggy
as he was struck . And monstrous Gaia was burning all over
with an ineffable blast and melted like tin heated
beneath the skill of craftsmen in bellowed crucibles
or iron , which is the strongest of all things ,
being subdued in the mountain glens by blazing fire ,
melts in the shining earth beneath Hephaestos ' hands .
