cable's length of the ship; but the wind was so strong, that we were driven directly upon it, and Immediately split. Six of the crew, of whom I was one,
having let down the boat Into the sea, made a shift to get clear of the ship and the rock We rowed, by my computation, about three leagues, till we
were able to work no longer, being already spent with labor, while we were in the ship. We, therefore, trusted ourselves to the mercy of the waves;
and, in about half an hour, the boat was overset by a sudden flurry from the north. What became of my companions in the boat, as well as those who
escaped on the rock, or were left in the vessel, I cannot tell, but conclude they were all lost.
For my own part, I swam as fortune directed me, and was pushed forward by wind and tide. I often let my legs drop, and could feel no bottom; but,
when I was almost gone, and able to struggle no longer, I found myself within my depth; and, by this time, the storm was much abated.

Read the excerpt from The Metamorphoses by Ovid.

[Deucalion] soothes [Pyrrha] with these gentle words, and says, ". . . The oracles are just, and advise no sacrilege. The earth is the great mother; I suspect that the stones in the body of the earth are the bones meant; these we are ordered to throw behind our backs.” Although she, descended from Titan, is moved by this interpretation of her husband, still her hope is involved in doubt; so much do they both distrust the advice of heaven; but what harm will it do to try?”

Read the excerpt from the adaptation "The Flood” by James Baldwin.

"What did he mean?” asked Pyrrha.

"Surely I do not know,” said Deucalion. "But let us think a moment. Who is our mother, if it is not the Earth, from whom all living things have sprung? And yet what could he mean by the bones of our mother?”

"Perhaps he meant the stones of the earth,” said Pyrrha. "Let us go on down the mountain, and as we go, let us pick up the stones in our path and throw them over our shoulders behind us.”

"It is rather a silly thing to do,” said Deucalion; "and yet there can be no harm in it, and we shall see what will happen.”

How does the adaptation differ from the original?

In Ovid’s original, the tone is playful, while in Baldwin’s adaptation, the tone is confident.
In Baldwin’s adaptation, the tone is lighthearted, while in Ovid’s original, the tone is serious.
In Ovid’s original, the characters have more respect for the deity, while in Baldwin’s adaptation, the characters are rude to the deities.
In Baldwin’s adaptation, the characters are unsure of the advice, while in Ovid’s original, characters follow the advice without question.

Aurora's Day
Aurora was going to turn 15 years old in a few months. This significant day would mark her coming of age in Mexican culture. She looked forward to the privileges of sitting with the adults at family gatherings. However, Aurora was disappointed to learn that she would not be given the traditional quinceañera, a celebration that would honor her transition from childhood to adulthood. Aurora was sad because she had dreamt of wearing a beautiful gown and being the center of attention at a fancy party.
"Mija, lo siento. My daughter, I am sorry. ¡Qué lástima! What a pity! We just can't afford such an expensive party," Aurora's mom said.
Aurora cried and pouted, but that didn't change the circumstances. Tía Claudia tried to lift Aurora's spirits by saying that she would still have fun attending her friends' quinceañeras, but that only made Aurora feel worse. Yet, Aurora tried her best to have a good attitude in the weeks leading up to her day. Aurora stopped complaining that she would not have a quinceañera and began to get excited about going to her friends' special parties.
On day of Aurora's was to have her party, her mom woke her early.
"Mija, I have a surprise for you," Aurora's mom said.
"What is it, Mama?" Aurora asked.
"You will have a quinceañera!" Aurora's mom said.
"But, how?" Aurora asked.
"Tu familia, your family, has worked together to make the celebration possible. Now get up! There is a lot to do!" Aurora's mom said.
Aurora was overwhelmed with joy. She quickly rose and helped her mom with the final preparations. At 4:00 p.m., Aurora's grandma, Abuelita Milagra, arrived at Aurora's home. She carried a large bag.
"You must get dressed, mi amor, my love!" Abuelita Milagra said.
Aurora took the bag from her grandma and ran to her bedroom. Inside the bag, she found an exquisite white satin dress, a pair of white slippers, and a special book. Abuelita Milagra made sure that Aurora had a traditional white gown to symbolize purity, instead of a brightly colored modern one. Aurora slipped on the dress and the shoes and ran to show her mom and grandma.
"Mija, you look like an angel!" Aurora's mom said.
Abuelita Milagra hugged and kissed Aurora. Then, she reached inside her purse and pulled out a necklace with a delicate gold heart. She placed the necklace around Aurora's neck.
"Otra cosa, another thing," Abuelita Milagra said.
Aurora's dad entered the kitchen carrying a sparkling rhinestone tiara.
"Mi princesa, my princess, I have a crown for you. You are my precious daughter. You have made your family proud by working hard at school, and by being truthful and kind," Aurora's dad said as he placed the tiara on her head.
Then, Aurora and her family drove to a family members house for a special meeting. Aurora received hugs and gifts from aunts and uncles. Next, she gave her younger cousin Sofía a doll. Aurora had received that same doll from her older cousin Pearla when Pearla had turned 15.
At last, it was time to celebrate. Aurora and her family went to a local restaurant where all of her friends and extended family were gathered. Dressed in a tuxedo, Aurora's friend Ramón served as her escort for the evening. He shyly complimented her appearance, took her arm, and walked her to the stage.
"¡Mil gracias, mi familia! A million thanks, my family! I will never forget this day!" Aurora said into the microphone.
"We love you, Aurora!" everyone shouted.
