It is called the foundation of all （the qualification “the deathless ones...” etc. is an interpolation）, because not only trees, men, and animals, but even the hills and seas （ll. 129, 131） are supported by it.the deathless ones who hold the peaks of snowy Olympus, and dim Tartarus in the depth of the wide-pathed Earth,and Eros （Love）, fairest among the deathless gods, who unnerves the limbs and overcomes the mind and wise counsels of all gods and all men within them.
