Once there lived a king named Midas.He was very rich.He was fond of gold though he had a lot of riches/wealth.But he was very greedy.He always wanted more and more gold.And he always thought about golden touch.
He said to himself,"If a had a golden touch,I would be the luckiest people."One day he was taking rest in front of his palace.He was thinking of his golden touch.He was praying to God for golden touch.Suddenly a man appeared before/came to him.He said to the king,"God has granted your prayer.From this moment,whatever you touch,will become gold."Then the man went away.
He couldn't believe his eyes what happened a few minutes ago.He touched an apple to test the golden touch and it become gold.He then became so happy."I'm the happiest man in the world!"he said.Then he entered into the palace touched many things and they became gold.
But this thing continued.Whatever he touched,they turned into/became gold.He couldn't eat,touch,go anywhere.He was thinking about the consequences/results of golden touch.At that time,her doughter was coming towards him.When she touched her father,she turned into/became the statue of gold.At this the king started crying like a child."Take this dreadful/terrible thing away.I want my child!I'll never be greedy again."he exclaimed.
The king apologised to God for thousand times.He realized/understood the result of greed.At last the God accepted his request.The God took away his golden touch.Then he became very happy because he got his dearest doughter and greed free life.
