Great Jove to whose Almighty ThroneB
Both Gods and mortals homage payC
Ne'er may my soul thy power disownB
Thy dread behests ne'er disobeyC
Oft shall the sacred victim fallD
In sea girt Ocean's mossy hallD
My voice shall raise no impious strainE
'Gainst him who rules the sky and azure mainE

How different now thy joyless fateF
Since first Hesione thy brideG
When plac'd aloft in godlike stateF
The blushing beauty by thy sideG
Thou sat'st while reverend Ocean smil'dH
And mirthful strains the hours beguil'dH
The Nymphs and Tritons danc'd aroundI
Nor yet thy doom was fix'd nor Jove relentless frown'dI

George Gordon Byron
