She liked to hunt and every night she went through the wood on her white horse. Her dog ran after her and seven girl-friends in beautiful white dresses followed her. They were the seven daughters of King Atlas, and they ran like the wind. One night a giant whose name was Orion hunted in the wood. When he saw the seven sisters running there, he wanted to catch one of them and ran after the girls. When the sisters saw that the giant followed them, they were frightened and ran very quickly. They ran through the wood and over the mountains and saw that the giant was still very near. They called Diana and asked her to help them. Diana changed them into birds and suddenly Orion saw seven birds which rose into the sky. They flew higher and higher and at last became seven bright stars in the sky. The Greek people called them the Pleiades or the Seven Sisters. The myth says that Orion could not forget the beautiful white birds and looked for them all his life. People say that only at the end of his life Orion found them in the sky. At night when there are no clouds in the sky, you can see the Pleiades. They are a small group of stars very near one another. The seven sisters are always running away from Orion and he will never catch them. goddess - богиня were frightened - були налякані pleiades - плеяди myth – міф жүктеу/скачать 0,78 Mb.
