- of ploughing; agricultural
Meaning
Apollo is associated with ploughing beside seed and golden-lyre titles at XXXIV.3. The agricultural epithet adds cultivation to the god’s many spheres rather than cancelling his musical ones. It is a divine characterization, not an instruction for how to plough.
