افسانه تيرگان

تيشتر ايزد باران به پيكر اسبى سپيد با گوش و يال و دم زرين درآمد و در كنار درياى فراخكرت فرود آمد و ديد كه اسبى سياه و بدگل بى يال و دم و بريده گوش بر كناره دريا ميتازد و خشكى و   مرگ مى پراكند. دانست كه او "اپوش" ديو خشكسالى است. دو اسب در ميانه دريا به هم آويختند و سه شبانه روز زورآزمايى كردند
