Author Notes
*from internet search:

The Elysian Fields were, according to Homer, located on the western edge of the Earth by the stream of Okeanos. In the time of the Greek poet Hesiod, Elysium would also be known as the "Fortunate Isles," or the "Isles (or Islands) of the Blessed," located in the western ocean at the end of the earth.

Cumulous clouds or cumulus are summer cloud formations.
