Athens admired his work but very angry with what was painted on it .. He did not get if there was a human who vilify him .. Athens was destroyed Arachne's work ..
Then she touched Arachne's forehead and the strength of Athens makes it feel guilt and shame are very, very .. Not put up with that feeling, Arachne ran and hung himself ..
However, Athena took pity with Arachne who was hanged on a rope, until finally he said,
"LIVE! O sinful girl! Remember this lesson, and you and your descendants will continue to rely and continue what you normally do!"
