How does Zeus punish Lycaon? Why is this a fitting punishment for Lycaon?

For Lycaon wanted to know whether the one who had asked for his hospitality was a god or not. For this deed he was punished by no slight punishment, for Jupiter, quickly overturning the table, burned the house with a thunderbolt, and turned Lycaon himself into a wolf.

In this passage, Ovid, a Roman poet (43 B.C.–17 A.D.) has Zeus, known in this Roman context as Jupiter, describe the punishment of an impious king named Lycaon for failing to recognize the god and worship him. This event was one of the factors that led Zeus to send a flood to destroy humans.

Explanation:

you need to include the text. we have no idea what you are referring to

the difference between an explicit and implicit meaning is that the explicit meaning of a poem is that the detail is exactly defined. nothing is left to interpretation. an implicit meaning is an implied meaning. kabir's poetry is both explicit and implicit in that it can be interpreted on different levels. the explicit meaning leaves nothing to interpretation while the implicit meaning leaves lots open to interpretation. an example of this is found in the poem "rumi and the spiritual lover".
