The mythical legend runs that the art was invented by the gods to appease the anger of the sun god dess and to Induce her to shine once more upon the earth and upon the other divinities. The melodles which resulted were potent to prevail upon her, and thus was light restored to the world and music and dancing were given for Its delight. Like as Not; Like as Not.
