Crow and Peacock

Once upon a time, both Crow and Peacock were best friends and had same feather colors, gray. They knew themselves were ugly so they didn’t appear front of other birds. Peacock in Crow’s eyes was uglier than him because Peacock had a small head and a long neck that they didn’t connect to his body.

tale of crow and peacock
One day, Crow talked Peacock:
“A painter was painting nearly so we should come and steal some colors to paint on our feathers and make it beautiful” said Crow
Peacock bowed his head. That day, the painter hadn’t finished his picture so he left his jar of colors on ground and took a nap. The first time, they stole a paintbrush and some jars then hid them on mound middle lake nearly. The second, they planned to go and steal again but the panter had woken up and came his home so they only took a jar of ink and a pocket of purl he had left.
“Right, we start painting, yet” said Crow
Crow made Peacock lie down and began painting. Crow painted very beautiful. First, he painted on Peacock’s head then to neck by green then dropped purl on. Then he continued painting wings and tail. He made Peacock spread his wings and tail. He painted particularly. Each quill, he painted a circle and painted ink into, dropped purl on.
Very pleased, Crow made Peacock dry his feather until it was really dry.
Peacock’s turn, he was embarrassed and didn’t know how to paint. Futher, green and purl almost over. Mine while, a bird which had a white feather related to Crow flew to and said: “Bother, what are you doing? Hurry, we must go to east now?”
“What for?” said Crow
“I have heard others talked that in which a war have happened. That was so many cadavers” said the other.
Crow had heard he could resist thinking about meat. He said:”Really, but I must be painted, waited me!”
“No, we must arrive before tonight. Tomorrow, they will be hidden” said the other
Crow said Peacock: “Please, Painting as fast as you can I am hurry”
The other saw Peacock became beautiful he wanted to be beautiful too so he asked Crow: “Bother, could you share me a little color. I also want to be more beautiful”
Crow agreed. Because Peacock was thinking about meat so Peacock poured the remaining ink from his head to his legs without his noticing. His beak also was painted in ink.
The other’s turn, Peacock also poured the ink on his head but he shrunk his neck so his head was till white. When they saw each other they realized they were painted by a bungler. But couldn’t do anything, they could only roar at Peacock minutes and flew up. They had never talked to Peacock again since that time.
Now day, Peacock have colorful feather and always show up themselves front others. On the other hand, Crow and his brother (maybe, named Corvus torquatus. I am not sure) always hide themslves from others sight because they don’t want the others see they are ugly.
The end.🎭🎭🎭

Sisyphus

SISYPHUS, son of Aeolus, married Atlas ’s daughter Merope, the Pleiad, who bore him Glaucus , Ornytion , and Sinon, and owned a fine herd of cattle on the Isthmus of Corinth. b. Near him lived Autolycus , son of Chione , whose twin-brother Philammon was begotten by Apollo , though Autolycus himself claimed Hermes as his father. c. Now, Autolycus was a past master in theft, Hermes having given him the power of metamorphosing whatever beasts he stole, from horned to unhorned, or from black to white, and contrariwise. Thus although Sisyphus noticed that his own herds grew steadily smaller while those of Autolycus increased, he was unable at first to accuse him of theft; and therefore, one day, engraved the inside of all his cattle’s hooves with the monogram SS or, some say, with the words ‘Stolen by Autolycus’. That night Autolycus helped himself as usually and at dawn hoof-prints along the road provided Sisyphus with sufficient evidence to summon neighbours in witness of the th

Scylla And Nisus

MINOS was the first king to control the Mediterranean Sea, which he cleared of pirates, and in Crete ruled over ninety cities. When the Athenians had murdered his son Androgeus, he decided to take vengeance on them, and sailed around the Aegean collecting ships and armed levies. Some islanders agreed to help him, some refused. Siphnos yielded to him by the Princess Arne, whom he bribed with gold; the gods changed her into a jackdaw which loves gold and all things that glitter. He made an alliance with the people of Anaphe, but rebuffed by King Aeacus of Aegina and departed, swearing revenge. Aeacus then answered an appeal from Cephalus to join the Athenians against Minos . b. Meanwhile, Minos was partying the Isthmus of Corinth. He laid siege to Nisa, ruled by Nisus the Egyptian, who had a daughter name Scylla. A tower stood in the city, built by Apollo [and Poseidon ?], an at its foot lay a musical stone which, if pebbles were dropped upon from above, rang like a lyre-because Ap

THE DETHRONEMENT OF CRONUS

CRONUS married his sister Rhea , to whom the oak is sacred. But it was prophesied  by Mother Earth , and by his dying father Uranus, that one of his own sons would dethrone him. Every year, therefore, he swallowed the children whom Rhea bore him: first Hestia , then Demeter and Hera , then Hades , then Poseidon . b. Rhea was enraged. She bore Zeus , her third son, at dead of night on Mount Lycaeum in Arcadia, where no creature casts a shadow and, having bathed him in the River Neda, gave him to Mother Earth; by whom he was carried to Lyctos in Crete, and hidden in the cave of Dicte on the Aegean Hill. Mother Earth left him there to be nursed by the Ash- nymph Adrasteia and her sister Io, both daughters of Melisseus, and by the Goat-nymph Amaltheia. His food was honey, and he drank Amaltheia's milk, with Goat-Pan , his foster- brother. Zeus was grateful to these three nymphs for their kindness and, when he became  Lord of the Universe, set Amaltheia's image among
