	Arachne, Greek Mythology Link.
		But famous Arachne, seeing the complete unknown old woman, thought instead that what come with Old Age are of course childish ideas, and told her to give advice to someone else, for she Arachne, was quite able to advise herself, and in order to put the old woman in her right place she added:
		And just as Arachne showed her talent by weaving, this man, far more educated and wise than her, could prove his, just by speaking and letting his natural cleverness expose the childish tales and the dirty nature of the gods he so thoroughly described.
		And excepting perhaps the words of this man, what Arachne achieved could not be surpassed, neither in the way it was performed, for the skill was extraordinary, nor in the way it described the crimes of heaven, and that is why Athena destroyed it.
