More Myths

Three more myths I've read are, Cupid and Psyche, Callisto, and Linus. I believe all these myths to be very different among themselves. Linus is merely a paragraph long, and it narrates nothing but the character's death. On the other hand, I found a closer relationship between the other two myths. They both involve the punishment of a nymph, and in both cases, for love, temptaion and lust. The only connection I can see between these and Gilgamesh is the relationships the characters constlantly share, and how they sometimes seem to end in misery and death.
