Atlas and Perseus
After the killing of Medusa，Perseus，carrying her head with him，flew far and wide，over land and sea.As night came on，he reached the western limit of the earth ，where the sun goes down.Here he would gladly have rested till morning.It was the kingdom of King Atlas，who was bigger than all other men.He was rich in flocks and herds and had no neighbor or rival to invade his country.But his chief pride was in his gardens，whose fruit was of gold，hanging from golden branches，half hid with golden leaves.Perseus said to him，“I come as a guest.I claim Zeus for my father and I killed Medusa.I seek rest and food.”But Atlas remembered that an ancient prophecy had warned him that a son of Zeus should one day rob him of his golden apples .So he answered，“Go away!Or neither your false claims of glory or parentage shall protect you” ;and he attempted to drive him out.Perseus，finding the giant too strong for him，said，“Since you value my friendship so little，please accept a gift”;and turning his face away，he held up Medusa's head.Atlas was changed into stone.His beard and hair became forests，his arms and shoulders cliffs，his head a summit，and his bones rocks.Each part increased till he became a mountain，and(such was the pleasure of the gods)heaven with all its stars rests upon his shoulders.
阿特拉斯和珀爾修斯
珀爾修斯殺死墨杜薩之后，提著她的腦袋翻山越海四處飛行。夜晚降臨時，他來到日落之處，地球的最西端。他很想在這里休息過夜。這是阿特拉斯國王的王國。阿特拉斯長得五大三粗，天下無雙。他擁有成群的牛羊，沒有來自鄰幫或敵人的侵犯。不過，他最引以自豪的是他的果園。那兒在金葉的虛掩下，金樹枝上掛滿了金蘋果。珀爾修斯對阿特拉斯說，“我是來作客的。我的父親是宙斯，我殺死了墨杜薩。我來是想找個休息的地方和充饑的食物”。然而，阿特拉斯想起古時候的預(yù)言說過，有一天，宙斯的一個兒子將奪走他的金蘋果。于是，他回答道：“走開!你自吹自擂的光榮業(yè)績和高貴血統(tǒng)一類謊話都救不了你的命”。說著，阿特拉斯便動手想把珀爾修斯趕出去。珀爾修斯發(fā)現(xiàn)巨人力大無比，他對付不了，便說：“既然你看不起我對你的友誼，那就請你勉為其難，接受我的禮物吧”。他轉(zhuǎn)過臉去，高舉起墨杜薩的腦袋。阿特拉斯頃刻間化成了石頭。他的胡須和頭發(fā)變成樹林;雙臂和肩膀變成了峭壁;頭成了山頂;骨頭成了巖石。他身體的每個部分都不斷膨脹，終于成了一座大山。根據(jù)神祗的心愿，天體及其群星落在他肩頭，由他來背負。
