The Prometheus Bound

Look to it now, Hephaestus-thine it is, Thy Sire obeying, this arch-thief to clench Against the steep-down precipice of rock, With stubborn links of adamantine chain. Look thou: thy flower, the gleaming plastic fire, He stole and lent to mortal man-a sin That gods immortal make him rue today, Lessoned hereby to own th' omnipotence Of Zeus, and to repent his love to man!
