Tellus had said these things: because she was neither able to tolerate the heat anymore nor was she able to say more, she brought back her mouth through herself and her hands nearer to the hollows. 

                Yet the father omnipotent, witnessing above, and if he himself, who had given the chariot, did not cast assistance, all would be ruined by a heavy fate, he sought the highest point of the tall acropolis, from where he is used to bringing having been created clouds to the earth, from where he excites and throws the having been vibrated lighting about to thunder; but at that time the clouds had neither who would he be able to bring clouds over the earth nor the rain who would compose and bring them down from the storm clouds: he thundered and, having been balanced with his right hand, from his ear he sent a having been formed thunderbolt at the charioteer, and he dislodged together his soul and wheels and fierce flames quenched flames. The horses had been thrown into confusion and made leaps in opposite directions they freed their necks away and abandoned the having been broken reins; over there lie the in ruins the bridle, over there the having been wrenched out axle beam, in this way parts of the having been broken spokes of the wheels, and traces of the lacerated chariot scattered far and wide.

                Yet Phaethon, fire ravaging his yellow-red hair, tumbled head first and lengthy he endured having been dragged in the air, as occasionally from the atmosphere a shooting star brightens the sky, though it does not fall, he [she,it] has been able to see it fall. Far away from the fatherland in an opposite part of the globe Eridanus captured him and washed the glowing heat from his edge [skin]. Western land nymphs deliver his body fuming from the three-pronged flame and marked here a stone with a verse: 

                                                                Here buried is Phaethon driver of his fathers chariot

                                                Whom if he did not hold strong nevertheless you fell having dared

                For the father, miserable with illness established a face hidden by grief and, if just now we imagine, they recount one day moved on without sun; light was provided by fires and something was enjoyed in that evil. Yet Clymene, after she had said whatever which is to be said about evil of such size, mournful and mad and her bosom of love having been torn she surveyed the whole globe first for the deprived of life limbs, soon she seeking the bones she discovered however the bones having been placed on a foreign shore, and she laid on the spot and she drenches the name on the stone having been read with tears and with her having been exposed chest she comforted.
