Adventurous Atlanta,
hunter of wild boar,
challenged men to race barefoot...
provoking even more,
declared that she would marry
the victor of the race,
all defeated she would kill
to shield them from disgrace.
A daring suitor,
in his hand
carried golden apples,
each time Atlanta took the lead
a golden apple did precede.
As she stooped to pick it up
the young man passed her
fast, outclassed her.
So, in a joyful open hand
was placed the contested wedding band.
