When Prometheus lit the first campfire on earth, the people were afraid of it. But they （51）___________him, and so they came closer and closer and （52） ___________the fire's pleasant warmth and beautiful glow. Prometheus knew that he would not have much time before Zeus discovered that he had been disobedient. But he also knew that, powerful as Zeus （53） ___________, once a god had given a gift it could not be taken away. So he quickly taught the mortals how to use the gift of fire. Now Zeus was a jealous god. He grudged men all the gifts that Prometheus had given them and he was angry with Prometheus for （54） ___________ men so many things. And so when he found that Prometheus had given to men this final gift of fire, he burst out into （55） _________ rage. He ordered his two invincible servants, Power and Violence, to seize Prometheus and to carry him to the （56） ___________peak of the dreadful Caucasus. There among the crawling glaciers, beneath the lashing hail and winds of storm, or, in the summer time, shelterless against the scorching heat of the sun, Prometheus was to be bound fast with unbreakable chains. The task of making these massive chains and of （57） ___________them upon the victim's body was given to Hephaestus, and, though Hephaestus shrank from the dreadful deed of so torturing a brother god, he feared the power of Zeus and did not dare to disobey. Indeed he hated the skill of his hand, but he was forced to use it, and so he flung the hard chains around the （58） ___________body of Prometheus and, with great blows of this hammer, nailed and fastened him to the （59） ___________rocks. He groaned as he did this work, for he （60） ___________the good Titan; but the servants of Zeus, Power and Violence, merely mocked him for his weak spirit and hurled their insults at Prometheus himself. （From Prometheus）____________
