I'm not sure that Lewis' assertion that myths must be awe-inspiring is true. Awe is such a strong term and can surely mean different things to different people. The Lord of the Rings causes ridicule, not awe, among some people, yet I would argue that it is still myth.
Vice versa, there are stories which I hold in awe which are clearly not myth.
