He spake, and white-armed Juno willingly Complied; she took the oath, and called on all The gods who dwell in Tartarus below, And bear the name of Titans. When the oath Was taken, and the accustomed rites performed, From Lemnos and from Imbrus forth they went, Shrouded in mist; and swiftly moving on Toward Ida, seamed with rivulets and nurse Of savage beasts, they came to Lectos first, And there they left the sea. Their way was now Over the land, and underneath their feet The forest summits shook. Sleep halted there Ere yet the eye of Jupiter descried His coming, and upon a lofty fir, The tallest growing on the Idaean mount, High in the air among the clouds of heaven, Springing from earth, he took his perch within The screen of branches, like the shrill-voiced bird, Called Chalcis by the immortals, and by men Cymindis, haunting the high mountain-side.
