before he brought them harm.

man - half bull beast.
_______ King Cocalus promised to do so, but he persuaded Minos to first take a bath and stay for some
entertainment.
______ But vengeful King Minos wasn’t quite done — he then went in pursuit of Daedalus, hoping to
locate and trick the great inventor into revealing himself.

the ant to walk through the spiral chambers until it came out the other end.
_______ Forgetting his father’s stern advice, Icarus flew too close to the sun god Helios, who was pulling
the sun behind his chariot high in the sky.
