you can. If you give me time, I may learn to fly as high as you. Then, we can fly together.”
The hawk agreed. Before he went away, he gave the hen a ring. “This is to show that you have promised
to marry me,”said the hawk.
So it happened that the hen had already promised to marry a rooster. So, when the rooster saw the ring,
he became very angry. “Throw that ring away at once! Didn,t you tell the hawk that you,d already promised to
marry me?” shouted the rooster .The hen was so frightened at the rooster anger that she threw away the ring
immediately.
When the hawk came the next day, the hen told him the truth. The hawk was so furious that he cursed
the hen. “Why didn,t you tell me earlier? Now, You,ll always be scratching the earth, and I,ll always be flying
