XVII: Poseidon

Look, there! On the horizon, where the sea meets the land,
That dark gleaming horseman, brazen trident in hand?
That’s Poseidon, who dwells in the deep-seated sea:
Loud-thundering lord, attend to our plea!
You’re named “Consort of Da”, the ancient Great Mother,
For you uphold the earth like a tender-armed lover.
When you and your brothers divvied up spoils,
You won for your part the watery roils.
So you came to the depths of the wide-breasted sea,
as lord of the ocean, Earth-Shaker, resounding with glee.
Whipping up waves that rish-rush, crash, beat
Flow, froth, and foam under your horses’ feet.
Whizzing o’er the waves and shaking the brine,
Master of the Waters, O Poseidon divine,
You gladden at swells, and beasts underwater,
Oh daemon of the deep, attend to your daughter!
I pray, still earthquakes, and calm tidal waves,
Bring peace, health, and happiness
and lead wealth to the brave.

I really liked this. So, is daemon pronounced exactly like demon, then?
