He glances, methinks, with an evil eye on the mighty Enceladus; and, let me tell you, Briareus has a great following among them; so they say of him you know, that he hath fifty heads and a hundred arms. See! how they gather around him. 'Who speaks now to Briareus? 'The young and valiant Mimas. Be assured he is counselling war. We shall have a debate now.
'I take thy sneer, Enceladus, said the young and chivalric Mimas, 'and throw it in thy teeth. This learn, then, from Briareus and his friends, that if we were lukewarm in the hour of peril, the fault lies not to our account, but with those who had previously so conducted themselves, that, when the danger arrived, it was impossible for us to distinguish between our friends and our foes.
The son of Tydeus went on also with me, and his crews with him. Later on Menelaus joined us at Lesbos, and found us making up our minds about our course for we did not know whether to go outside Chios by the island of Psyra, keeping this to our left, or inside Chios, over against the stormy headland of Mimas.
Nor were the Bebrycians reckless of their king; but all together took up rough clubs and spears and rushed straight on Polydeuces. But in front of him stood his comrades, their keen swords drawn from the sheath.

One modest satellite, revolving inside Mimas, would then be all that was left of the singular appurtenances we now contemplate with admiration. There seems reason to admit that Kirkwood's law of commensurability has had some effect in bringing about the present distribution of the matter composing them.
If one of the present moons of Saturn for instance, Mimas, the innermost hitherto discovered should wander within the magic circle of Roche's limit it would suffer a similar fate, and its particles would be disseminated among the rings.
Typhoeus and Mimas, Porphyrion and Rhoecus, the giant brood of old, steeped in ignorance and wedded to corruption, had scaled the heights of Olympus, assisted by that audacious flinger of deadly ponderous missiles, who stands ever ready armed with his terrific sling Supplehouse, the Enceladus of the press.
From this, however, there arose on the Italian stage, in after years, the Servetta or Fantesca, a kind of waiting maid, or "accomplished companion" part, and called later, in France, Soubrette, and the origin of which, in all probability, can be traced to the Mimas of Pantomimus.
