Abstract
-
en_US
The King, a Golden Mallard, had a lovely daughter, and she asked to choose her own husband. She chose the beautiful peacock, but the latter showed off in such a proud dance that she took offense and declared You may have beautiful feathers, but your proud dancing has lost you a wife. She went on to choose a handsome mallard who was wise enough not to show off his feathers. The peacock was so ashamed that his voice turned hoarse. The Golden Mallard turns out to have been the Buddha.
