Text 18

Read and translate the text.

They were as White as Snow

Believe it or not but many years ago the raven and the owl were both as white as snow. One day they went to the forest. The raven says, «I am tired of being white and what about you?»

«I am tired of being white too.»

«I have a plan», - says the raven.

«Why don’t we paint each other a different colour?»

«All right», - answers the owl.

«We can try to do it».

The raven was pleased.

«Good! Let’s begin. You paint me first and then I’ll paint you», says the raven.

«Oh, no. It’s your idea. You must begin».

«Very well», - the raven agreed.

He took some paint and started.

He painted many beautiful grey and black spots on each feather, large and small.

«Oh, how beautiful! I have made you, owl!», - cries he after finishing his work.

The owl was pleased the raven’s work.

«And now let me paint you too».

But when the owl finished her work she saw that the raven was more beautiful than she was. The owl got angry and poured all painted over the raven and flew away.

«Oh, you are a bad owl», - cried the raven. “I made you nice, you made blacker then night”. And from that day all ravens are black and they don’t like owls.
