By-Tor and the Snow Dog

By-Tor and the Snow Dog is the 4th song from side 1 of Rush's second studio album, Fly By Night. The song is 8:37 minutes long.
When viewing the credits of Fly By Night, it can be noted that the photos of the band have Alex Lifeson called "The Snow Dog" and Geddy Lee called "By-Tor." The story behind the song title is told:
"Rush's road manager Howard Ungerleider came up with the title at a party. There were two dogs at the party, one a German shepherd and the other a tiny white nervous dog. Howard used to call the shepherd By-Tor because anyone that walked into the house was bitten. The other dog was a snow-dog (white). So from that night on Howard called the pair of dogs "By-Tor and the Snow Dog." The dogs belonged to Rush's manager" (Songfacts).
The naming of the band members under the same titles is not explained.
The song is split into 4 sections:
# At The Tobes of Hades
# Across the Styx
# Of The Battle
# Epilogue
