This, but you can find it in Ovid's Metamorphoses and probably in the Iliad and the Odyssey. Probably in Apollodorus' Bibliotheca Mithologica.

Remember that when it comes to Greek myths there is never one single source.

Nevertheless, someone had to write it down first. It didn't go from oral tradition to Clash of the Titans.
Also, fuck you.

Yes, I know, but it remains a valid source for OP's research on the topic of this particular myth.

Don't forget Hesiod and Pindar (Pythian 12), both of whom are earlier than Ovid and Apollodorus
