The Illiad (thought it's been a very long time) oh wait, 1001 Arabian Nights.
Arabian Nights is probably my fav.

xjp said:You better know your Eddas. I scored with an Icelandic chick once(in Iceland), because I knew who Snorri was. Stick to the Heimskringla.
A Gentle Knight was pricking on the plaine,
Y cladd in mightie armes and siluer shielde,
Wherein old dints of deepe wounds did remaine,
The cruell markes of many' a bloudy fielde;
Yet armes till that time did he neuer wield:
His angry steede did chide his foming bitt,
As much disdayning to the curbe to yield:
Full iolly knight he seemd, and faire did sitt,
As one for knightly giusts and fierce encounters fitt.
Your right though, I was stretching the definition of myth quite a bit. I second your recommendation for the reading of the sagas.
