The Wise Mother Bird
A. “There is no danger for us as yet,” said Mother
Bird. “We may stay here one day more.”
В. The little birds
heard his words; they were frightened and ran to their mother.
“Mother”, they
cried, “the farmer wants to cut the corn tomorrow. He wants to ask his brothers
and sisters to help him.”
С. Once a family
built their nest in the middle of a cornfield. As the summer went on, the
little birds grew up and the corn also grew tall.
D. On the third day the farmer came to the field early
in the morning and began to work alone.
E. Next morning the farmer and his son came to the
cornfield. They waited and waited, but no neighbors came to help them, as they
were busy with their own corn.
F. “Don’t be afraid,” said Mother Bird, “there is no
dander for us as yet. We may stay here one day more.”
G. One day a farmer came to the field and looked at the
corn. Then he said to his son: “I think it is time to cut this corn. Tomorrow I
shall ask our neighbors to come and help me.”
H. And indeed the brothers and sisters of the farmer
did not come to the field next day. They said they were very sorry, but they
were busy with their own work.
I. The little birds heard his words and they went to
their mother. “The farmer wants to ask the neighbors to cut the corn tomorrow.
We are afraid that he will ruin our nest. Let us fly away from this field
today.”
J. When Mother Bird saw the farmer, she said: “Now, it
is time for us to fly away, because when somebody does the work himself,
instead of asking other people to do it, that is when the work gets done.”
К. Next day the
farmer came with his son to the cornfield again, looked at the corn and said:
“It is really time to cut the corn. Now I shall ask my brothers and sisters to
come and help me.
