Kithairon sang of cunning Kronosand sacred Rhea who stole her son Zeus,mighty among immortals.Then the Muses asked the gods to puttheir ballot stones in the urn of gold.All stood up and Kithairon wonthe greater part. Hermes shouted loud, at once proclaiming sweet victory.The gods adorned his brow with flowers,and Kithairon rejoiced. But Helikonwas stunned with bitter rage, and torea massive boulder from the mountain.Insanely he shouted and lobbed the rockdown on thousands of mortals below.
