Hail, Kronos, Lord of Time!
You wear down, you raise up, you evolve, you reap.
You are the wily, the all-devouring.
You deposed your tyrannous father Ouranos and set free your mother Gaia,
You wielded the sharp scythe, given you by Gaia, that removed your father's manhood,
Resulting in the conception and birth of Aphrodite, most powerful goddess of Love.
And the Furies, and the Giants, and the Nymphs.
Deposed in turn by your son Zeus, in time you were given the Isles of the Blest to rule,
O Kronos, Titan Lord of Time!
