"O Adamastor" has lyrics of the portuguese poet Luís Váz de Camões (1524 / 1580) taken of the medieval book "Os Lusiadas" (1571) and repute the tale of a giant monster, that lived in the the Cape Of Turmoil (cape of South Africa) and now is known as the Cape Of Good Hope, by the Portuguese mariners in the times of sea discoveries.
