The Argo-robber knew that he must not joke when Apollo was angry, so he stood aside cautiously and said: "If you wish to cheat me, then in the future be Hermes and I will be Apollo. I know that you are above me in power, and that you can harm me, but happily there is some one who is stronger than you and he will judge us. Radiant, I call you to the judgment of Chronid! Come with me."
Seeing this, Maya's son grew quiet, and having saluted the generator, boldly accused the Radiant. When he had finished, Zeus was silent a while, and then said: "Radiant, is it true?" "It is true, father Chronid," answered Apollo, "but if after the shame you will order me to pay the bet, I shall descend to Hades and light the shades." Zeus became silent and thoughtful.
Apollo feared the name of Chronid. He did not care to refuse, and they departed. In the mean time day began to break. The Attic came out from the shadows. Pink-fingered dawn had arisen in the sky from the Archipelago.
Chronid waited joyfully on the earth, for he had passed a pleasant night, and was gladsomely gazing on the earthly circle. The Earth, happy beneath the weight of the gods' and people's father, put forth beneath his feet green grass and young hyacinths, and he, leaning on it, caressed the curling flowers with his hand, and was happy in his proud heart.
