Persephone

Persephone snacked on pomegranate seeds in Hades and now our gas bills rocket in January.

See Now Then is the story of Mr. and Mrs. Sweet and their two children Persephone and Heracles.

Pluto is god of the underworld whose wife Persephone sits frozen, entranced or asleep on her throne.

Persephone threw a loving kiss to her fond mother, and then went to the shore of the sea to play with the sea nymphs.

The driver, who was King Pluto himself, caught the frightened Persephone in his arms.

She is happy in the results of her labor and in the presence of her lovely daughter, Persephone.

He obeyed, and rowed her over the black river in his dingy boat, and Persephone gave her the box.

In the Eleusinian mysteries the rape of Persephone by Pluto, the winter god, is portrayed.
