Zeus, the lord of gods,
metamorphisized himself into the white bull,
is pasing through the wide ocean.
On his back is his beloved Europe,
a beautiful princess of Phoenicia.
The couple is heading for a far away land to honeymoon.
Europe is certain to be happy there,
wherefore the land is caled Europe.
