古希臘神話故事：海 倫(中英文)
在帕利斯來訪斯巴達之前，海倫的婚姻生活比較平靜。海倫被帕利斯可愛的面容迷住。當墨涅勞斯國王不在時，他們就相互偷情，之后一起乘船私奔到了特洛伊城。海倫將幼小的女兒留在了斯巴達。為了奪回海倫，希臘軍隊越過海峽，將特洛伊城緊緊包圍。
一天正當海倫靜靜地將自己的經(jīng)歷編織成一塊金色的 毯時，有人叫她在特洛伊城上觀看墨涅勞斯和帕利斯的決斗。墨涅勞斯決心殺死帕利斯。坐在皮安姆國王旁邊，她將希臘一方的首領(lǐng)告訴了國王。當她看到城墻下前夫的身影時，愛的熱淚流滿了眼簾。帕利斯戰(zhàn)敗逃離戰(zhàn)場后，她的感覺是既愛又卑視。她鼓勵海格特和帕利斯再次走上戰(zhàn)場，并真誠地為真正的英雄海格特的死而哀痛。但當奧德修斯和狄俄墨德斯化裝后來偷竊雅典娜神像時，她竭盡全力幫助了她們。帕利斯戰(zhàn)死后，她成了皮安姆國王另一個兒子的妻子。
與此同時墨涅勞斯焦急地在毀壞的特洛伊宮中尋找海倫。愛神阿芙羅狄蒂使海倫變得更美麗了。結(jié)果當墨涅勞斯終于發(fā)現(xiàn)躲在角落中發(fā)抖的海倫時，極不情愿將利劍刺向她那迷人的面孔。而他內(nèi)心正為奪回海倫暗自高興，海倫跟隨墨涅勞斯穿過特洛伊城的廢墟，她深為自己的不潔行為感到恥辱。一想到自己將在希臘軍營中遭受的命運，她就心驚膽顫。
她的美麗再次拯救了她。沒有人能忍心將劍刺向令人銷魂，嫵媚動人的女子之身。在墨涅勞斯的帳篷中，海倫跪在斯巴達國王的腳下，乞求饒恕?？吹窖矍暗那樾?，墨涅勞斯深受感動，他扶起海倫，讓她忘掉過去的一切。墨涅勞斯將她抱起來時，海倫的兩眼流出幸福與悲傷的淚水。他們倆像以前那樣相愛，一同消失在遙遠的西方。
