Transcript of THE BRIDE OF THE NILE By Eiman AbdelNasser 6C. It was said that the ancient Egyptians were...
It was said that the
ancient Egyptians
were considering
the River Nile the
god of goodness,
growth and fertility.
But in the one
of the years, the
Nile refused to
over-flow.
When the flood
did not occur
the land became
dry.
Then the
minister of
the kingdom
said to the
King that the
Nile wanted
to get
married and
have
children.
All girls wanted to
marry the god of
goodness and every year
the minister chose a
beautiful girl to jump
into the river and they
would do it with
complete satisfaction.
After many
years there were
no more girls for
the celebration.
Only the king’s
daughter was
available.
The king did not want to let
his daughter jump in the Nile,
but the minister insisted.
So the king’s maid felt sorry
for the princess and she took
the princess to her house and
instead the maid made a
puppet that looks exactly like
the princess and they threw
the puppet in the Nile.
