   • 1793, Johann Heinrich Voß, Ilias [Iliad]‎^[1], Insel Verlag, published 1990, →ISBN, lines 1:402-406:

     Rufend zum hohen Olympos den hundertarmigen Riesen, / Den Briareos nennen die Himmlischen, aber Ägäon / Jeglicher Mensch; denn er raget auch selbst vor dem Vater an Stärke. / Dieser nun saß bei Kronion dem Donnerer, freudiges Trotzes. / Drob erschraken die Götter, und scheuten sich, jenen zu fesseln.

     (please add an English translation of this quotation)
