Greek Classics: Pandora's Box (Easy Classics)

After punishing the Titan Prometheus for stealing fire for humans, Zeus commands Hephaestus to create Pandora, the first mortal woman. Then he gives Pandora a beautiful golden box, and tells her never to open it. Pandora’s curiosity about the box grows until she cannot resist looking inside. The moment she does, Zeus’s final punishment is unleashed.

Dupa ce l-a pedepsit pe titanul Prometeu pentru ca a furat foc pentru oameni, Zeus ii porunceste lui Hephaestus sa creeze Pandora, prima femeie muritoare. Apoi ii da Pandorei o frumoasa cutie de aur si ii spune sa nu o deschida niciodata.
