- Here in a vast cavern king Aeolus rules over the struggling winds and howling tempests, and restrains them in prison with fetters.
- Here AEolus within a dungeon vast / the sounding tempest and the struggling blast / bends to his sway and bridles them with chains.

Là, sous de vastes monts, / le dieu tient enchaînés dans leurs gouffres profonds / les vents tumultueux, les tempêtes bruyantes.

- Those indignant winds grumble with a loud murmuring around the confines of the mountain; Aeolus sits in his high citadel, holding his scepter, and he soothes their spirits and tempers their rages: if he did not do this, they would surely snatch away seas and lands and the deep heaven itself, and sweep them off through the windy sky.
- They, in the rock reverberant held fast, / moan at the doors. Here, throned aloft, he reigns; / his sceptre calms their rage, their violence restrains: / else earth and sea and all the firmament / the winds together through the void would sweep.

S'agitant de fureur dans leurs prisons tremblantes, / ils luttent en grondant, ils s'indignent du frein. / Au haut de son rocher, assis le sceptre en main, / Éole leur commande ; il maîtrise, il tempère / du peuple impétueux l'indocile colère : / s'ils n'étaient retenus, soudain cieux, terre, mers, / devant eux rouleraient emportés dans les airs.
