So the chained titan rests his cavernous mouth agape, having spoken only a name, inherited by those clever apes whose infant minds enjoy the tests of heaven and of God. Pride, the curse of his design is all that is left of his name. The granduer of his body withered yet somehow remains for insects [...]
