Answer 1

The gods were so charmed with the graceful and artistic creation of Hephæstus that they all
determined to endow her with some special gift. She was called Pandora, which means "all gifted,"
having received every attribute necessary to make her charming and irresistible. She was
conducted to the house of Epimetheus by Hermes, the messenger of the gods.

Epimetheus had in his possession a jar of rare workmanship that he had been expressly
forbidden to open. But woman's proverbial curiosity could not withstand so great a temptation,
and Pandora determined to solve the mystery at any cost. Watching her opportunity, she raised
the lid, releasing the swarm of evil spirits trapped within. They would plague mankind ever after
