章节摘录
插图:The sea-god was the father of two giant sons called Otusand Ephialtes. When only nine years old they were said to betwenty-seven cubits in height and nine in breadth. Theseyouthful giants were as rebellious as they were powerful,even presuming to threaten the gods themselves withhostilities. During the war of the Gigantomachia, theyendeavoured to scale heaven by piling mighty mountains oneupon another. Already had they succeeded in placing MountOssa on Olympus and Pelion on Ossa, when this impiousproject was frustrated by Apollo, who destroyed them withhis arrows. It was supposed that had not their lives been thuscut off before reaching maturity, their sacrilegious designswould have been carried into effect.Pelias and Neleus were also sons of Poseidon. Theirmother Tyro was attached to the river-god Enipeus, whoseform Poseidon assumed, and thus won her love. Peliasbecame afterwards famous in the story of the Argonauts, andNeleus was the father of Nestor, who was distinguished inthe Trojan War.The Greeks believed that it was to Poseidon they wereindebted for the existence of the horse, which he is said tohave produced in the following manner: Athene andPoseidon both claiming the right to name Cecropia (theancient name of Athens), a violent dispute arose, which wasfinally settled by an assembly of the Olympian gods, whodecided that whichever of the contending parties presentedmankind with the most useful gift, should obtain theprivilege of naming the city. Upon this Poseidon struck theground with his trident, and the horse sprang forth in all hisuntamed strength and graceful beauty.
