Translation of "éclatants" in English

Des papillons éclatants volaient çà et là.

Brilliant butterflies flew hither and thither.

La nuit couvrait le ciel ; tout dormait, quand mes dieux, / ravis dans Troie en cendre à la fureur des feux, / aux rayons de Phébé qui brillait tout entière, / m'apparaissent en songe, éclatants de lumière, / consolent mes chagrins, et m'adressent ces mots :

'Twas night; on earth all creatures were asleep, / when lo! the figures of our gods, the same / whom erst from falling Ilion o'er the deep / I brought, scarce rescued from the midmost flame, / before me, sleepless for my country's shame, / stood plain, in plenteousness of light confessed, / where streaming through the sunken lattice came / the moon's full splendour, and their speech addressed, / and I in heart took comfort, hearing their behest.
