СКАЧАТЬ Apollo and Hyacinth competed in the discus throw. It was impossible to give preference to any of the athletes, because Hyacinth performed no worse than God. Exerting his last strength, Apollo threw the disk under the very clouds, and Zephyr, who was eager for his friend's victory, blew so hard that the disk hit Hyacinth in the face and mortally wounded him.

      Apollo, saddened by the death of the young man, turned the drops of his blood into wonderful flowers, so that the memory of him would live among people.

      An African legend.

      One day, enemies descended on a small village and many residents were captured, but the elder managed to escape, hiding the main values of the community from the invaders. Then the enemies began to torture the beautiful daughter of the elder, wanting to find out where her father was hiding and where the treasures were hidden. But she didn't say a word to her enemies.
