Study Notes
The Origin of the Rainbow
- A great chief of the people lived near a beautiful waterfall and was disappointed by the single color of the flowers, which were all white.
- The chief decided to paint the flowers in various colors, including yellow, blue, orange, black, violet, green, and red.
- Two little birds were curious about the painting and landed on the flowers, getting some color on their wings.
- The chief warned the birds to be careful, but they continued to fly around and landed on the flowers, eventually diving into the paint buckets.
- The chief shooed the birds away, and they flew high into the sky, leaving streaks of color behind them, creating a rainbow.
- The chief was delighted with the rainbow and decided to allow it to appear in the sky above the waterfall whenever there was water in the air.
- The chief also allowed the rainbow to appear in the sky after rain, and it has become a regular sight.
- The rainbow has seven colors: violet, blue, orange, yellow, red, green, and indigo (not mentioned in the text but implied by the context).
