[希臘神話]阿波羅
Apollo
Among the crowd of Olympian gods the one most widely admired was Apollo．He was the son of Zeus and Let to．According to Greek mythology，Leto was driven by Hera from land to land at last Poseidon took Pity on her and brought the island of Delos out of water for her to live on．There she gave birth to the twins ，Apollo and Artemis．
Apollo was me sun-god．He wore a purple robe．He usually sat in his bright eastern palace early in the morning and madeready to start his daily journey across the sky．During the day hed rove his carriage of gold and ivory ， and brought light， life and love to the great world below． Iate in the afternoon he came to the end of his journey in the far western sea and got on his golden boat to return to his eastern home．
Apollo was the god of music and poetry．He could stir up all feelings．These feelings are expressed in lofty songs．With his lyre of gold and the sweet accents of his godlike voice heled the choir of the Muses at Olympus．The pleasant music from his lyre was so exciting that stones marched into their places in rhythmic time and of their own will when he helped Poseidonbuild up the walls of Troy．On one occasion，invited to a contest by the human musician Marsyas，he won and then flayed him to death for his pride．On another occasion，he lost out toPan at a musical contest and turned the ears of the judge，King Midas，into those of an ass．
His son，Orpheus，took over such skill from the father that his lyre moved man and animals alike．
Apollo stood for youthful and manly beauty．His goldenhair，stately manner and air all combined to make him the admiration of the world．A beautiful girl，by the name of Clytle，was so fond of his beauty and glory that from dawn to dusk she knelt on the ground，her hands outstretched towards the sungod，and her eyes looked at his golden wheeled carriage racing across the blue sky．Though her love was not returned，she had never changed her mind about Apollo．The gods were moved at the sad sight，and changed her into a sunflower．
阿波羅
在眾多的奧林波斯山神中，主神宙斯和雷託之子阿波羅最受推崇。據希臘神話記載，雷託被天后赫拉驅趕得四處流浪。最終是海神波塞冬憐憫她並從海中撈起提落島讓她居住。在島上，她生了孿生兒子阿波羅和阿爾特彌斯。
阿波羅是太陽神。清晨他身著紫色袍，坐在那明亮的東方宮殿，準備開始每日穿越天空的旅行。白天，他駕著用金子和象牙製成的戰車，給廣闊無垠的大地帶來光明、生命和仁愛。黃昏時分，他在遙遠的西海結束了旅行，然後就乘上金船返回東方的家中。
阿波羅是音樂神和詩神。他可喚起人們傾注於聖歌中的各種情感。在奧林波斯山上，他手拿金質裡拉，用悅耳的音調指揮繆斯的合唱。當他幫助波塞冬建造特洛伊城牆時，裡拉奏出的音樂如此動聽，以致石頭有節奏地、自動地各就其位。有一次他接受凡人音樂家馬斯亞斯的挑戰參加一次競賽。戰勝對方後，他將對手剝皮致死以懲罰他的狂妄自大。在另外一次音樂比賽中，因輸給了潘神，他就將裁判邁爾斯國王的耳朵變成了驢耳朵。
