1. The Greeks of long ago had gods who were much like people. Like people, the gods had fights. They played trick on each other. They got mad at each other. They had enemies.
2. But the gods were not like people in all ways .They had powers that people did not have .And people were mortal ; that is they could die .The gods were immortal; they would die .The were mortal; they would live forever .3. The gods ruled the world .They lived on Mount Olympus. That was a high mountain in Greece. Clouds hid the mountain’s peak .Above the clouds, all was lovely. The sun always shined. The air was fresh and soft .There ,each god and goddess had some .Zeus ruled them all .He had a fine palace.
4. So now, ambrosia and nectar can be on anyone’s table. Even you can eat them! But it was not always so . Once these were foods for the gods.
