Once upon a time there lived a beautiful girl named Medusa. Medusa lived in the city of Athens, in Greece and although there were many pretty girls in the city. Medusa was considered the most lovely.
Medusa was very proud of her beauty and thought or spoke only of herself. Each day she boasted of
how pretty she was. Nedus even boasted that she was prettier than Athena, goddess of wisdom; who watched
over Athens.
Athena decided to punish Medusa for her
pride. Foolish gir" Athena said angrily. "You
think you are prettier than I am! I doubt it to be
true, but even if it were there is more to life
than beauty-alone! While others work and play
and Icam. you only boast and admire yourself."
And with those words Medusa s "face
changed to that of a hideous monster. Her hair
Eivisted anä: thickened into homble snakes that
hissed and fought each other atop her head.
"Medusa. your face is now sotterrible that the mere sight of it will
tum a man to stone. Stiathe foddess! Even your Medusa. Will turn into a
rock if you see your face
And with that thena Sent Meus twith her hair of shakes to live
with the blind monsters -- the Gorgon sisters at the ends of the earth.
