After this fashion we gained the spine of mountain which composes Ischia-the smooth ascending ridge that grows up from those eastern waves to what was once the apex of fire-vomiting Inarime, and breaks in precipices westward, a ruin of gulfed lava, tortured by the violence of pent typhoeus.
"Sketches and Studies in Italy and Greece, Vol III."
John Symonds
Make us not go to Tityus nor typhoeus; This one can give of that which here is longed for; Therefore stoop down, and do not curl thy lip.
"Divine-Comedy-Longfellow-s-Translation-Complete"
Dante Alighieri
