Parnassus

ye peaks of Parnassus that rear your rocky heads to heaven, where Bacchus with uplifted torch of blazing pine bounds nimbly amid his bacchanals, that range by night!

the peaks of Parnassus, where no man may set foot, are all ablaze and hail the car of day for mortal’s service.

they come, the feathered tribes, leaving their nests on Parnassus.

And the name of the episcopate has now passed to wretched house-bred slaves—no one of God's servants choosing to put himself forward in their place, but only the desperate, such as those now sent in by Anysius, the nursling of Euippius, and by Ecdicius of Parnassus, whose appointer left him in the churches as an evil provision for himself in the life to come.

And Apollo, since he did not disobey Zeus, carried the mangled corpse to Parnassus and laid it down.

Calling to his servants Go, some to Helicon, others to the glens of Parnassus, and bid woodmen to cut me logs of oak, and when they are brought to the town, pile up a stack of wood all round the altar on either side, and set fire to it and burn them all alive, that they may learn that the dead no longer rules this land, but that for the present I am king.

When the Phocians were besieged on Parnassus, they had with them the diviner Tellias of Elis;

When the barbarians were near to the temple of Athena Pronaea, they were struck by thunderbolts from the sky, and two peaks broken off from Parnassus came rushing among them with a mighty noise and overwhelmed many of them.

The peak of Parnassus called Tithorea, which rises by itself near the town Neon, has room enough for a multitude of people.

And thence you went speeding swiftly to the mountain ridge, and came to Crisa beneath snowy Parnassus, a foothill turned towards the west:

And while he considered this, he became aware of a swift ship upon the wine-like sea in which were many men and goodly, Cretans from Cnossos, the city of Minos, they who do sacrifice to the prince and announce his decrees, whatsoever Phoebus Apollo, bearer of the golden blade, speaks in answer from his laurel tree below the dells of Parnassus.

But if you will be moved by me —for you, lord, are stronger and mightier than I, and your strength is very great —build at Crisa below the glades of Parnassus:

their heads are besprinkled with white meal, and they dwell under a ridge of Parnassus.
