"I made this myth up for my Language arts class. I hope you like it"

Once there was a young girl named Eliza. She was the daughter of a king and so she never had to work. She became very lazy. She had her servants do everything for her.

"I am so very thirsty, and my glass is on the table. Please get it for me." she called. Immediately a servant picked the glass up from the table next to Eliza and held it up to her lips until Eliza was no longer thirsty.

The next day, Eliza was walking to dinner when her hat fell off. She called for a servant and a young man ran over, picked up the hat, dusted it off , and placed it back on Eliza's head.

She continually called for her servants to do simple tasks for her. Her father noticed her laziness and decidedto punish her. He set her in a room with only a loomand some yarnto her in her dream. He said "Athena has heard your pleas for help. She is very angry with you. She will come to you and inform you of your punishment".

Eliza awoke very frightened. She then saw that there was an owlon the edge of her window. The owl spoke to her.

"I am Athena. You have called upon me to do your work. You must be punished for your laziness. You are a mortal of high importance, therefore you have no work to do. I am going to make you a lowly animal.
