THE SWALLOW 



sowing flax linen 

 discovered begged 



A swallow saw a man sowing seeds in the 

 ground. 



. She went behind him and picked up one of 

 the seeds. 



She found that it was flax. 



" Soon this flax will be grain/' she said. 



" Then it will be made into linen thread. 



"Then perhaps it will be made into nets to 

 catch us birds."
