And from **Typhoeus** comes the force of winds blowing wetly, except Notos (the South Wind) and Boreas (the North Wind) and clear Zephyros (the West Wind). These are a god-sent kind, and a great blessing to men; but the others blow fitfully upon the seas. Some rush upon the misty sea and work great havoc among men with their evil, raging blasts; for varying with the season they blow, scattering ships and destroying sailors.

In panic they fled to Aigyptos (Egypt), all except Athena and Zeus, who alone were left. **Typhon** hunted after them, on their track. When they fled they had changed themselves in anticipation into animal forms.\\ | ||
