Once upon a time, a hawk
fell in love with hen. The hawk flew down from the sky and asked hen, “Won’t
you marry me?”
The hen loved the brave,
strong hawk and wished to marry him. But she said, “I cannot fly as high as you
can. If you give me a time, I may learn to fly as high as you. Then we can fly
together.”
The hawk agreed. Before he
went away, he gave 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 me the hawk
that you’d already promised to marry me?” shouted the rooster. The hen was so
frightened at the rooster’s 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 the earlier? Now, you’ll always be scratching the
earth, and I’ll always be flying above you to catch your children,” said the
hawk.
The curse seems to have
come true.

One morning, one of the
Witch’s friends came over to visit. When she looked around the room, she said,
“Your house is ugly. My house is more beautiful than yours, and the walls are
brighter.” The Witch was very angry when she heard this and she shouted, Get
out of my house! And don’t ever come back here.”
After her friend left, the
Witch looked around her house and she said to herself, “My friend was right. My
house looks ugly and the paint is faded. I have to repaint it.” Then she went
to the shop and bought a can of paint.
After lunch, she started to
paint, and she worked very carefully. In the afternoon she finished the lower
part of the house. When she wanted to start painting the upper part, she found
out that she couldn’t reach it. Then she got an idea. “I will use my magic
broom!” she shouted, “Broom, oh my broom, turn into a paint brush and paint my
walls!”
Suddenly the broom turned
into a paint brush and it started to paint the upper walls. It worked very
fast, and in ten minutes the job was done.
The Witch was very happy.

Borobudur is
Hindu-Buddhist temple built in the 9th century under the Sailendra
Dynasty of Java. It is located near Magelang on the island of Java,
Indonesia.
Abandoned in
the 11th century and partially excavated by the archeologists in the
early 20th century, Borobudur
temple is well-known all over the world. Influenced by the Gupta architecture
of India,
the temple is constructed on a hill 46 m (150 ft) high and consists of eight
step-like stone terraces, one on top of the other. The first five terraces are
square and surrounded by walls adorned with Buddhist sculptures in bas-relief
the upper three are circular, each with a circle of bell-shaped stupa (a
Buddhist shrine). The entire edifice is crowned by a large stupa at the center
of the top circle. The way to the summit extends through some 4.8 km of passages
and stairways. The design of Borobudur, a
