Ovid speaks of Ladon, Atlas and Perseus.<\/em><\/p>\n

Hic hominum cunctis ingenti corpore praestans
\nIapetionides Atlas fuit. Ultima tellus
\nrege sub hoc et pontus erat, qui Solis anhelis
\naequora subdit equis et fessos excipit axes.
\nMille greges illi totidemque armenta per herbas
\nerrabant, et humum vicinia nulla premebant.
\nArboreae frondes auro radiante nitentes
\nex auro ramos, ex auro poma tegebant.
\n\u201cHospes,\u201d ait Perseus illi, \u201cseu gloria tangit
\nte generis magni, generis mihi Iuppiter auctor;
\nsive es mirator rerum, mirabere nostras.
\nHospitium requiemque peto.\u201d Memor ille vetustae
\nsortis erat: Themis hanc dederat Parnasia sortem:
\n\u201cTempus, Atla, veniet, tua quo spoliabitur auro
\narbor, et hunc praedae titulum Iove natus habebit.\u201d
\nId metuens solidis pomaria clauserat Atlas
\nmoenibus et vasto dederat servanda draconi
\narcebatque suis externos finibus omnes.
\nHuic quoque \u201cvade procul, ne longe gloria rerum,
\nquam mentiris\u201d ait, \u201clonge tibi Iuppiter absit!\u201d
\nvimque minis addit manibusque expellere temptat
\ncunctantem et placidis miscentem fortia dictis.
\nViribus inferior (quis enim par esset Atlantis
\nviribus?) \u201cat quoniam parvi tibi gratia nostra est,
\naccipe munus!\u201d ait, laevaque a parte Medusae
\nipse retro versus squalentia protulit ora.
\nQuantus erat, mons factus Atlas: nam barba comaeque
\nin silvas abeunt, iuga sunt umerique manusque,
\nquod caput ante fuit, summo est in monte cacumen,
\nossa lapis fiunt: tum partes auctus in omnes
\ncrevit in inmensum (sic, di, statuistis) et omne
\ncum tot sideribus caelum requievit in illo.<\/p>\n
