| Once upon a time there was a girl by the name of Psyche. Pysche was gorgeous and beautiful beyond compare. Everyone came to admire her. Her beauty was so astounding, that people left the temples of venus(aprodite) to worship her, or ask her for her hand. Venus was vain. How could a mere mortal rival the gods? So she asked her son Cupid (eros) to make Pysche fall in love with a horrible monster. But when Cupid gazed on pysche from mt. olympus, he could not resist her. He did not tell his mother that he loved her, but he kept it hidden in his heart. Now, pysche at the time, was very refusal to the men who wooed her. Finally, her father went to see an orcale, to ask if she would ever marry. Apollo told the orcale the situation that Pysche was meant to fall in love with a monster, and they wept for her. Pysche said to her family, "fear not, for i die with happiness. I loved no man, but i knew, and you knew, my overwhelming beauty. be happy for me, for the gods have spoken." weeping they went away and left her on a hillside. It was a dark and gloomy, but all of a sudden a gentle brezze dirfted her to a feild of flowers. There was a brook, a forest, and a golden place. The wind told her that the place was for her and she want inside. She ate, was played music for by an invisible person, and slept with an invisible husband. This it went on for many nights untill her sister visited her. She thought, she had married a evil man, and tricked pysche into trying to see what he looked like. So during the night she light a candle, and saw cupid, lying beside her. She got ready to kill herself, but her hand was so shaky she acidently spilled oil upon cupid. He flew away, and sobbed for he and pysche could now never be together. However, in grief for her husband she wandered the forest. She came to venus's temple andprayed for help. Venus was outraged that cupid saw pysche and gave her three impossible tasks. To venus's amazement, she did them. She sorted seeds into 3 piles, got golden fleece, and water from the river styx. Now she knew pysche had had help but she couldn't guess who. So she finally asked her to go the underworld and give her the box of beauty . Well she made it, but wanting beauty for herself, opened it. She fell into a deep sleep. It is a diffucult matter to keep love imprisoned. For cupid found a way to go to her and lift the curse. Then cupid asked zeus if he could make pysche immortal. He sighed and promise d him that he would and now love and the soul (for that is what pysche means) are joined as one. and that love can never be broken. |
