τὴν δ' ἀπαμειβόμενος προσέφη νεφεληγερέτα Ζεύς:
Ἥρη: μήτε θεὸν τό γε δείδιθι μήτέ τιν' ἀνδρῶν
ὄψεσθαι: τοῖόν τοι ἐγὼ νέφος ἀμφικαλύψω
χρύσεον, οὐδ' ἂν νῶϊ διαδράκοι Ἠέλιός περ,
οὗ τε καὶ ὀξύτατον πέλεται φάος εἰσοράασθαι:
Then in answer to her spake Zeus, the cloud-gatherer: "Hera, fear thou not that any god or man shall behold the thing, with such a cloud shall I enfold thee withal, a cloud of gold. Therethrough might not even Helios discern us twain, albeit his sight is the keenest of all for beholding."
