The Indians of the Enchanted Valley

One autumn, in the valley, a great fire broke out and raged so violently that the

Indians of the tribe could not extinguish it. In desperation, they sent a request for

help to Man of Ice, a great man of magic who lived in the north. Man of Ice did

not answer with a prayer. Instead, he simply removed his crown of feathers from his

head, undid his long braids and shook his thick hair. The amazed messengers

noticed an unexpected breeze blow across his face. He shook his hair again and

it began to rain: the ; the rain changed to hailstones and then to snow.

The messengers returned to their valley where the fire was still burning. TheIndians stared helplessly at the fearful sight from the surrounding hills. They knew

what the messengers had seen but were afraid that their request had been made in vain.

A few days later, a strong wind blew up, but it served only to fan the flames still

further. The rain which followed only caused damp clouds of vapour to form: but

then the hail, which drove the Indians to find shelter far off put out the flames and,

finally, snow fell and covered even the ashes. Slowly the snow melted and when, at

the start of spring, the Indians returned to their home, they discovered a beautiful lake

where the fire had raged.

that would turn anything he touched to gold.

So be it, exclaimed Silenus.

gold. He touched his belt, his clothes, a vase, a statue.... everything turned to

gold. He began to run about the palace, and everything he touched became gold:

walls, furniture, o rn am en ts .. ..Midas was delighted, but all the excitement had made him hungry, so he sat

down at the table and prepared to eat. Then he reali zed that every piece of food he

brought to his mouth was tu rning to gold before he could eat it. Thanks to his greed, it

looked as though he was going to die of hunger.
