Description
Ζεύς, King of the Gods, ruler of Mount Olympus and the god of the sky and thunder.To [Zeus] Kronides Hypatos (the Son of Kronos, Most High). I will sing of Zeus, chiefest among the gods and greatest, all-seeing, the lord of all, the fulfiller who whispers words of wisdom to Themis as she sits leaning towards him. Be gracious, all-seeing Kronides, most excellent and great!
–Homeric Hymn 23 to Cronides (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic C7th to 4th B.C.)
