Children of Gaea, Mother Earth and Uranus, God of the Sky called Titans the ones who are first Gods of Unite

Glorious in their strength, and taller than mountains which were subservient as thrones and six Titanneses of beauty unprevailed by any were their offspring of first

Proud of all were the parents Gaea, Mother Earth and Uranus, God of the Sky for fruit divine fell from tree of life as grace provided Titans and Titannesses became one as man and wife

Again Gaea, Mother Earth became fruitful with children of not pleasing to Uranus's eye for they were not handsome for three had one eye and others of all of three had fifty heads and one hundred arms and pressed prevailed he cast them deep from eye sight into Tartans the pit of deepest dark under the Earth where all of foul deserve to be trapped from all eyes who loved the fair and beautiful and pressed not to see the ugly and horrific repulsive sights

Gaea , Mother Earth hurt beyond thought fashioned a weapon of the hardest flint to end the life of her husband for his cruelty to her children to set them free of his tyrannical rule

Questing one to six of the Titans to serve the deed done and watching fear overcome all but one who was Cronus the youngest, bravest and of strength unknown but with depth of great faced his father and prevailed to end his life

Uranus fighting with all his might faltered, stumbled great and conceded the victory won by his son Cronus fled giving up all his powers and all

Gaea, Mother Earth then married Pontus, her second husband of the boundless seas and produced Gods of all watery depths whom then allowed an abundance of life of trees, flowers, crevices, beasts and sprites of merry and early man
