さらに彼女はキュクロプスたちを産んだ。気性の激しい、ブロンテス、ステロペス、そして頑なな心のアルゲス。ゼウスに雷を与え、雷霆を作った者たちである。ほかの点では神々に似ていたが、目はひとつだけ、額の真ん中にあった。額に丸い目がひとつ据わっていたので、キュクロプス(丸い目の者)と呼ばれた。その手の仕事には、力と武と技があった。

And again, she bare the Cyclopes, overbearing in spirit, Brontes, and Steropes and stubborn-hearted Arges, who gave Zeus the thunder and made the thunderbolt: in all else they were like the gods, but one eye only was set in the midst of their fore-heads. And they were surnamed Cyclopes (Orb-eyed) because one orbed eye was set in their foreheads. Strength and might and craft were in their works.
