Narcissus story
Storyboard Text
- You will always have the last word, but no power to speak first.
- The hero, Narcissus, whose beauty was so great, all the girls longed to be his--even Echo, the loveliest of nymphs. But he had no interest in any of them.
- May he who loves no others love himself.
- Hera cursing Echo. She will never use her tongue again, except to repeat the words of others.
- Farewell--farewell.
- Narcissus went in search of his companions. When he called, Is anyone here? she repeated, Here---Here.. He shouted, Come!, and she answered joyfully, Come!, and stepped away from the trees. But he turned in angry disgust, Not so. I will die before I give you power over me, and all she could do was repeat, I give you power over me. But he had already left.
- One of those whom he wounded prayed a prayer and the gods answered. She prayed that he would fall in love with himself.
- As Narcissus bent over a pool for a drink, he fell in love with himself. He died while staring at his own reflection.
- When the nymphs went in search of his body, they found the most beautiful flower where his body was supposed to lay. They called it by his name, Narcissus.
