Nothing there is beyond hope,
nothing that can be sworn impossible,
nothing wonderful, since Zeus, father of the Olympians, made night from mid-day,
hiding the light of the shining Sun, and sore fear came upon men.

And my picture of the final double diamond ring just as the sun emerged from behind the moon. 
The break was caused by a lunar mountain blocking a bit of the "diamond" at the end of totality.
