    When the princess was old enough, King Swan called all the birds to his home. Birds came from everywhere, even from far away. King Swan told his (love) daughter to choose one she liked. She looked over the many birds. (final), she chose a green long—necked peacock. She told her father,"This bird, the peacock, will be my husband. "

    Hearing that the peacock was the lucky one, all the other birds crowded around to congratulate him. The excited peacock said nothing  held his head high. Later he  (begin) to shout and show his beauty in a strange dance. The other  (bird) started to laugh. 

    King Swan was angry. Standing in the middle of the birds, he said,"Sir Peacock, your voice is sweet, and you're really very pretty. But you are not modest at all. I will not allow my daughter to marry you!"
