Join us in this enthralling episode of 'Young Tales' by Todd Young as we explore "Bullfinch's Mythology: The Story of Simonides." Set in ancient Greece, this narrative follows Simonides, a poet known for his evocative elegies, as he navigates the treacherous waters of courtly praise and divine intervention.
Tasked with composing a poem for the noble Scopus's banquet, Simonides integrates a tribute to the divine twins Castor and Pollux. However, his reward is halved by a proud Scopus, who mocks the poet’s devotion. Little does Scopus know, his fate is sealed not by pride but by the gods themselves.
A dramatic turn of events ensues when the hall of Scopus collapses, hinting at the intervention of the divine twins. This spellbinding tale reminds us of the power that dwells both in words and celestial realms. Tune in for a story that marries myth and morality, shaping lessons timeless and true.
