They then to fountain abundant Ida mother of wild beasts | B |
Came and they first left ocean to fare over mainland at Lektos | B |
Where underneath of their feet waved loftiest growths of the woodland | C |
There hung Hypnos fast ere the vision of Zeus was observant | D |
Mounted upon a tall pine tree tallest of pines that on Ida | E |
Lustily spring off soil for the shoot up aloft into aether | F |
There did he sit well cloaked by the wide branched pine for concealment | D |
That loud bird in his form like that perched high up in the mountains | B |
Chalkis is named by the Gods but of mortals known as Kymindis | B |
