 Porphyrion is also mentioned, in the company of other Giants, by the Latin poet Horace.The late fourth-century AD Latin poet Claudian in his "Gigantomachia" has Gaia, imagining the Giants victorious, propose that "Porphyrion, wreathe thou thy head with Delphi's laurel and take Cirrah for thy sanctuary", and has Porphyrion attempt "to uproot trembling Delos, wishing to hurl it at the sky".The late fourth or early fifth-century AD Greek poet Nonnus, in his "Dionysiaca", has Gaia set the Giants against Dionysus, promising Porphyrion Hebe as his wife should the Giants succeed in subduing the god.
