[00:10.79]Lesson 26  Text  THE GOLDEN TOUCH
[00:21.37]THE GOLDEN TOUCH
[00:31.92]Long,long ago there lived in Greece a king whose name was Midas.
[00:42.08]He was a greedy man and loved gold better than anything else in the world.
[00:51.04]One day he asked the gods to give him still more gold.
[01:00.79]The gods decided to punish him and said,
[01:06.56]"Very well.In the morning everything that you touch will become gold."
[01:14.89]Midas was overjoyed when he heard this.
[01:21.03]"I shall be the richest man in the world,"he said to himself.
[01:29.21]He got up early next morning.
[01:36.57]When he touched his bed, it turned to gold.
[01:42.74]He began to dress,and his clothes became gold.
[01:49.90]Midas was delighted.
[01:54.16]Midas loved flowers and kept a beautiful garden.
[02:03.01]He went into the garden to look at his flowers.
[02:09.25]The day was fine,the sun was bright and the roses were lovely.
[02:18.03]The king picked one of them, but it turned to gold in his hand.
[02:26.08]He picked another,and the same thing happened.
[02:32.24]He was sorry that the flowers changed as soon as he touched them,
[02:38.80]for he loved their rich colours.
[02:43.47]The king went to have his breakfast.
[02:51.52]He took a cup of milk, but it immediately turned to gold.
[02:58.89]Then he took a piece of bread,and that also changed into gold.
[03:07.14]Midas now began to feel unhappy.
[03:12.89]It was good to be the richest man in the world,
[03:19.37]but he was hungry,and he could not eat or drink gold.
[03:26.81]Midas went out into the garden again.
[03:34.88]His little daughter was there.
[03:39.74]When she saw her father,she ran up to him.
[03:45.99]King Midas was very fond of his daughter and he kissed her tenderly.
[03:54.53]Then and there she turned into a golden statue.
[04:01.89]Midas was now very unhappy.He went into his palace.
[04:12.76]His eyes filled with tears,
[04:18.04]and he begged the gods to take away the Golden Touch.
[04:24.70]"I was very foolish to love gold so much," he said.
[04:33.55]"Take all my gold and give me back my daughter."
[04:39.41]"Go,"said the gods,"and wash your hands in the river near your garden,
[04:49.88]and the water will take away the Golden Touch."
[04:55.94]Midas went to the river and washed his hands.
[05:03.88]Then he ran quickly to the golden statue of his little girl.
[05:11.04]He kissed her again and she changed back into his pretty little daughter.
[05:18.98]Midas never forgot this lesson.
[05:26.14]He knew now that gold did not bring happiness.
