Hippomedon
Hippomedon /hɪˈpɒmᵻdən/ (Ἰππομέδων, gen.: Ἰππομέδοντος) may refer to several figures in Greek mythology.
Hippomedon of the Seven Against Thebes
The most notable Hippomedon was one of the Seven Against Thebes. He lived near the lake Lerna in Peloponessus; the foundations of his house on Mount Pontinus at Lerna were shown in Pausanias' times. In Euripides' The Suppliants, he is characterized as a person uninterested in comfort and entertainments, eager to face hardships, and dedicating a lot of time to training for combat.
His father was either Talaus, the father of Adrastus, or Aristomachus (a son of Talaus), or Mnesimachus. If he is the son of Mnesimachus, then his mother is Metidice, daughter of Talaus, which makes him Adrastus's sister's son. By Euanippe, daughter of Elatus, Hippomedon was father of Polydorus, one of the Epigoni. Elsewhere though, his wife is named Nealce, and the son Demophon.
In Aeschylus' tragedy Seven Against Thebes, Hippomedon is one of the seven champions who attack the seven gates of Thebes. Aeschylus describes him as very large and powerful. He bears the image of a fire-breathing typhon on his shield and attacks the gate of Athena Onca, and is confronted by Hyperbius, son of Oenops. In Euripides' Phoenician Women, he has the image of Argus Panoptes on his shield and assails the Ogygian Gates. According to the Bibliotheca, he was killed in the battle by Ismarus, a son of Astacus.

by: MedinaCan you see the children running around
I'm imagining the house that we're gonna build
Damn nights carry out on a cloud
Red wine in a glas on the top hills
I'll tell it like it is
Cause I don't wanna waste another minute
Let me put it down like this
I've been afraid to say how deep I mean it
Cause you give me (joy, joy, joy)
And you feel me (happy, happy, happy)
When you give me (joy, joy, joy)
So keep on giving it (happy, happy, happy)
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love
Going low when we drive in your car
I know you like it when it's hot with the top down
Crazy fantasies are not too hot
That's the picture of the future in my heart
I'll tell it like it is
Cause I don't wanna waste another minute
Let me put it down like this
I've been afraid to say how deep I mean it
Cause you give me (joy, joy, joy)
And you feel me (happy, happy, happy)
When you give me (joy, joy, joy)
So keep on giving it (happy, happy, happy)
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love, love, love
I'm in love
Happ, happ, happy
Joy, joy, joy
I don't wanna run
Cause you make me come of
Everytime we touch
Did I say too much
They way you make me sway
You're my greatest fate
Want you night and day
For you I'm stepping up
I don't wanna run
Cause you make me come of
Everytime we touch
Did I say too much
They way you make me sway
You're my greatest fate
Want you night and day
Cause you give me (joy, joy, joy)
And you feel me (happy, happy, happy)
When you give me (joy, joy, joy)
So keep on giving it (happy, happy, happy)
