Chrysus
Mythology
Chrysus is mentioned only once in Greek literature by Pindar:
Khrysos (Gold) is a child of Zeus; neither moth nor rust devoureth it; but the mind of man is devoured by this supreme possession.
—;Pindar, Fragment 222 (trans. Sandys) (Greek lyric 5th century BC)
In his Isthmian Odes, Pindar also wrote:
Mother of the Sun, Theia of many names, for your sake men honor gold as more powerful than anything else,[3]
Furthermore, a scholium on those lines wrote ;; ;;;;; ;;; ;;;;;;;;; ; ;;;;;, ;; ;; ;;;;; ; ;;;;;;,[4] denoting a special connection of Theia, the goddess of sight and brilliance, with gold as the mother of Helios the Sun.[5]
Chrysus would carry
A depth of symbolism,
Moments of glory and romance,
Minutes of clarity and brightness,
His presence symbolizes power
And luxury.
His game is made of sunlight
And lucky colours.
He is connected with light
And celestial signs
Of the eternal sunlight.
