What was the story of Orpheus and Eurydice?
The story of Orpheus and Eurydice is that Orpheus had a girlfriend named Eurydice. On their wedding day, Eurydice stepped on a snake and died, leaving Orpheus very depressed. Orpheus decided to go down to the Underworld and bring back Eurydice's spirit. Once down there, he played his lyre so beautifully that Hades and Persephone were so moved that they let him bring her ghost back on one condition: to never turn back at the ghost. However, as they were leaving the Underworld, Orpheus looked back to see if Eurydice had made it out as well, but she was still in the Underworld as this was happening, so she was lost this time, forever.
How does orpheus lost eurydice the second time summary?
Orpheus went to the Underworld and charmed Persephone (the wife of Hades) with his singing and she persuaded Hades to let Orpheus take Eurydice back to the world of the living. Hades however wasn't so amenable and he place a condition on the deal that 'Orpheus must not look back until he has succeeded in returning the both of them to the light of day.' Well, as Eurydice was only freshly dead the snake bite on her foot was still sore and she lagged behind. As Orpheus was approaching the exit the worry that Eurydice was not behind finally got to him and he turned and looked. At that the demons of hell dragged her back down.

What is the fate of Orpheus and Eurydice?
Eurydice died from a snake bite while trying to escape from a Satyr. Orpheus was so distraught, he only played the most heart-wrenching music. At the behest of.. well... everyone, he traveled to the underworld to ask Hades for her back. Hades was a jealous guardian of his subjects, but Orpheus's music softened his black heart. He was allowed to take Eurydice back on one condition; that he must travel with her all the way back to the surface without looking upon her face. They were very near one of the entrances to the Underworld when Orpheus, unable to contain himself, looked back over his shoulder just in time to see Eurydice disappear back to Elyseum. After this Orpheus only played melancholy music. One day, he was stumbled upon by some Ciconian women (sometimes called Baccanites) who attempted to rape him. He shoved off their advances and when they tried to stone him, the stones refused to hit him because he played such stirring music. Eventually, they tore him to pieces. His Lyre was placed in the sky as the constellation Lyra.

King of the Underworld.You should know that there were different districts in the underworld:Tartarus is a place of punishment for sinners. It resembles Hell and is the opposite of Elysium, the afterlife for the blessed.Those who are no great sinners or blessed, stay in an indefinite area of Hades like shadows with no memories of life.There were also underworld gods there ruled by the grim Hades, They where:Charon - the ferryman of the deadCronus - King of ElysiumErinyes - Goddess of vengeanceHecate - Goddess of magic and ghostsHermes Chthonius - guide of the deadHypnus - God of sleepMoirae - Goddess of fateNyx - Goddess of nightPersephone - Queen of the underworldThanatus - God of deathAnd of course Hades King of the underworld.It was believed to be guarded by Cerberus A 3 headed dog owned by Hades.Once in the underworld there was no taking out.

Hades, King of the underworld instantly sent death to collect her and by the time Orpheus, Eurydice's husband hared the news of his wife's death it was too late. Orpheus was upset. He was determined not to give up when he decided to go to the underworld and get his wife.When he got there Persephone immediately wanted to help, Hades finally gave in and called for Eurydice. There she was a grey ghost of Eurydice. Hades agreed to her being taken back up to the earth surface on the condition that he never looks back. Orpheus agreed to this and was taken up with Hermes.They started walking up to the earths surface, they where very close when Orpheus just couldn't help but glance back, just to make sure that she was behind. He broke the deal and Eurydice was sent back.Orpheus was upset and begged for a second chance but he was not given one.He started sharing the story of his adventure.

Who did James K. Polk lose to when he ran for president the second time?
I could find no evidence that President Polk ran for president a second time or even sought the Democratic Party Nomination a second time.
In Greek mythology what was Orpheus's Roman name?
Uranus was the god of the sky for the Greeks and was killed by Cronus or Khronus or whatever you'd like to call him. The Romans actually found the story of Orpheus exceedingly boring because they were more warlike than the Greeks. So they decided that they would not retell the story of Orpheus so he never had a roman name. He remained Orpheus for all time.
You lost your mucus plug with your first does that mean you will with your second also?
I did not lose mine with the second or at least it was not a noticeable loss. I am now expecting my 3rd, 34 weeks tomorrow. I am wondering if I will lose it this time or not?
