Pandora's box
Many years ago all the word was very beautiful and nobody was ever sick or unhappy.
At that time there lived a beautiful little girl named Pandora. One day gave her a wonderful box tied with a golden cord and made her promise not to open it. Pandora and her little playmate, Epimetheus, often looked at the box and wondered what was in it.
For a long time Pandora kept her promise to the fairy, but at last she wanted to peep into the box. She untied the cord and lifted the cover only a little.
Out flew hundreds of bad little fairies. They stung Pandora and she fell on the floor and screamed. They stung Epimetheus, too.
Then they flew out of doors and stung all the children in the land. By and by Pandora heard a little voice crying, "Let me out, and I will help you,"
She opened the box, and out flew a beautiful little fairy. She told Pandora that her name was Hope. She kissed her and Epimetheus, and made them well. Then away she flew to help the other children.
To this day, when people are sick or unhappy, the good little fairy, Hope, comes to comfort them.
