吉尔伽美什和生命之树

Gilgameshh and the Tree of Life

很久以前,数千年前,古代苏美尔的乌鲁克城由一位伟大的国王吉尔伽美什统治,他三分之二是神,三分之一是人。吉尔伽美什王也许没有其他神那么强的魔力,但他还是有一些魔力的。他爱他的子民,也爱他的魔力。他也喜欢精彩的打斗和冒险。吉尔伽美什王时不时地把他的王国托付给他信任的人,自己去寻求冒险。他最喜欢去搜寻的地方之一是乌鲁克城边的禁林。你永远不知道森林里会发生什么。但那天,什么也没发生。

Once upon a time,many thousands of years ago,the city of Uruk in ancient Sumer was ruled by a great king,King Gilgamesh,who was two-thirds god and one-third mortal1.King Gilgamesh had magical powers,perhaps not as many as other gods,but still,he had some.He loved his people and he loved his magical powers.He also loved a good fight and a good adventure.Now and then,King Gilgamesh left his kingdom in the hands of his trusty men,and went off looking for adventure.One of his favorite places to look was in the forbidden forest that bordered2 the city of Uruk.You never knew what might happen in the forest.But that day,nothing much was happening.
