King Midas was a very wealthy king. His hobby was collecting gold. From the time he got up in the morning to the time he went to bed at night, he counted his gold. Nothing gave Midas greater pleasure then seeing his gold.
One day, Midas sat counting his gold. He saw an old man as sleep under the tree. He recognised the old man. He was silenus from the court of Dionysus, the god of wine and feasting.
Midas was cunning. He thought to himself, if I treat Silenus well, Dionysus will be pleased with me.
