Laocoon and the Trojan Horse
The greek were waging war with the Trojans. The great wooden horse they left behind under the Trojan city gate at night. The Trojans the horse there. "The Greeks dedicate a horse to Minerva", they said. "If we shall lead the gift of the Greeks into the goddess' temple, we shall have peace and live with good fortune." But Laocoon, the great priestess of courage and wisdom, dares to advise the people: "You think without reason, oh Trojans! If they are adundant in the horse, we are in great danger. You ought never to trust the Greeks, for Greeks are always deceitful." Then he hit the horse with a spear. Minerva' anger is great; the goddess sends two serpents oout from the sea. Oh, unfortunate Laocoon! The two evil serpent sons strike you and strangle you! The Trojans are afraid of the goddess; they lead the horse into the city. The reason of Laocoon teaches nothing to the Trojans.
