Ἠὼς δ᾽ ἐκ λεχέων παρ᾽ ἀγαυοῦ Τιθωνοῖο ὤρνυθ᾽,
ἵν᾽ ἀθανάτοισι φόως φέροι ἠδὲ βροτοῖσιν...
That men and Gods might be illustrated,
The saffron morn, with early blushes spread,
Now rose refulgent from Tithonus' bed...
Aurora from beside her glorious mate
Tithonus now arose, light to dispense
Through earth and heav’n....
Now Dawn arose from her couch from beside lordly Tithonus, to bear light to the immortals and to mortal men...
And now, as Dawn rose from her couch beside Tithonos - harbinger of light alike to mortals and immortals...
Dawn rose from her marriage-bed beside high-born Tithonus to bring her daylight to both gods and men.
Now Dawn rose from her bed, where she lay by haughty Tithonos,
carrying light to the immortal gods and to mortals....
Dawn came up from the couch of her reclining,
leaving her lord Tithonus' brilliant side
with fresh light in her arms for gods and men

Dawn reluctantly
Left Tithonus in her rose-shadowed bed.
Then shook the morning into flakes of fire.
As Dawn rose up from bed by her lordly mate Tithonus,
bringing light to immortal gods and mortal men...
Then Dawn rose up from bed with Lord Tithonus,
to bring the light to deathless gods and mortals.
