vowing that he would love no other among the immortals, neither god nor man sprung from Zeus, better than Hermes:
and the Father sent forth an eagle in confirmation. And Apollo swear also: Verily I will make you only to be an omen for the immortals and all alike, trusted and honored by my heart. Moreover, I will give you a splendid staff of riches and wealth:
it is of gold, with three branches, and will keep you scatheless, accomplishing every task, whether of words or deeds that are good, which I claim to know through the utterance of Zeus. But as for sooth-saying, noble, heaven-born child, of which you ask, it is not lawful for you to learn it, nor for any other
