King Midas: (startled) “What?! Oh heavens! Who are you? Why are you here?”

Dionysus: (smiling) “I am the god of the forests, Midas.”

King Midas: “How do you know my name? Are you here to rob my gold?”

Dionysus: (chuckling) “What would I do with gold? I’m here to thank you.”

King Midas: “Thank me? For what?”

Dionysus: “Silennus, told me how well you took care of him. So I’ve come to grant you a
wish. Tell me, what do you desire?”

King Midas: (excitedly) “I know what could make me happy. Give me a golden touch. I wish
that whatever I touch turns to pure gold!”

Dionysus: (serious) “okei.As soon as the sun rises tomorrow, anything you touch will turn to
gold.

palace and garden to gold.

I eat? I’m so thirsty…what will I drink?”

Narrator : Suddenly, Marigold runs to him from the garden

Marigold: (cheerful) “Father!”

King Midas: (reaching out, realizing too late) “No, Marigold! No!”

Narrator : Marigold turns into a golden statue

King Midas: (devastated) “Oh no…what have I done? Marigold, my beautiful little sparkle,
please, say something!”

Narrator : King Midas runs to the dungeon and cries for help. Dionysus reappears

Dionysus: “Oh, King Midas, why do you look so sad?

King Midas: (begging) “God, I beg for your forgiveness. What good is this gift if it takes my
daughter from me? I can’t eat or drink gold. I don’t need it. My true treasure was my
daughter, and now she is lost to me.”

Dionysus: “ha, Midas, you have learned a valuable truth. Gold fades, but the love and
affection of those around us are eternal.”

King Midas: “Please, take all the gold! Take everything…but give me my Marigold back.”
Dionysus: “Very well, King.take this pot filled with magical water. Sprinkle a few drops on
everything you’ve turned into gold. It will reverse the effect of your touch.”

King Midas: (gratefully) “Thank you! Thank you, god!”

Marigold: (gasping, waking up) “Father, what happened here?”

at the dewdrops shining on the grass.”

Marigold: (smiling) “Yes, Father. It’s lovely.”

refreshing. I am the richest man on earth, with my family beside me.”
