  18. The Old Legend of Barcelos' Cock • Once a man was condemned to be hanged for a crime which he had not committed. • In vain did he swear his innocence. To prove it, he said that the roasted cock which lay on a tray on the Judge's table would get up and crow if his statements were really true. • And, indeed, the cock immediately jumped up out from the tray and started crowing.

  19. Long ago, on the River Vistula, there was a small settlement of wooden huts inhabited by peaceful people. Near this village was Wawel Hill where there was a deep cave in which lived a dangerous dragon. • Every day the dragon appeared and carried off a sheep. The populace made many attempts to kill the dragon but without success. But one day a wise man, named Krakus, killed some sheep and stuffed them with sulfur. The dragon had a terrible fire within him, and a terrible thirst. It rushed to the River Vistula and drank a lot of water. Suddenly there was a great explosion, and the dragon burst. Krakus was made ruler of the village and a city grew up around the Wawel hill later called Krakov. WHICH COUNTRY IS THIS LEGEND FROM?

  20. Once upon a time there was a region, where birds and animals happily lived together. • But one day Russia occupied it. All the birds flew away. All the animals ran away. There were left only one turtle and one stork. • Both were sleeping at the time when the others left the region. When they woke up, the stork started to fly away and the turtle to swim away. • But the Russians saw them and threw a net on them. The turtle kept swimming. The stork kept flying but it was no use. They didn’t move even a millimetre! • They swam and flew years and years till they changed into stones. Nowadays the stork is called Hiiumaa and the turtle is called Saaremaa.

  21. A sultan had a much beloved daughter. One day, an oracle prophesised that she would be killed by a venomous snake on her 18th birthday. The sultan, in an effort to place her away from land so as to protect her against snakes, had a tower built in the middle of the Bosphorus to protect his daughter until her 18th birthday. The princess was placed in the tower, where she was frequently visited only by her father. • On the 18th birthday of the princess, the sultan brought her a basket of exotic fruits as a birthday gift, delighted that he was able to prevent the prophecy. Upon reaching into the basket, however, an asp that had been hiding among the fruit bit the young princess and she died in her father's arms, just as the oracle had predicted. Hence the name Maiden's Tower. WHICH COUNTRY IS THIS LEGEND FROM?
