Chapter 46 peaceful infection

A flowering branch said to its neighbor, "It is a dreary and empty day." The neighbor replied, "It is indeed an empty and dreary day." Now a sparrow hid on a branch, and then another on a neighboring one. One sparrow chirped, "My mate has left me." Another sparrow yelled, "My mate is gone too, she won't be coming back. I don't care!" The two sparrows began chirping and calling each other, and soon they were fighting, and in the There was a piercing sound in the air. Suddenly, two more sparrows glided down from the sky, and they sat quietly beside the two restless sparrows.Then there is tranquility, there is peace.

The four sparrows caught the ground in pairs and flew away together. Then the flowering branch said to its neighbor, "That's a big change in the sound." The neighbor replied, "Call it whatever you like, it's peaceful and spacious now. It seems to me that if there is peace in the sky above, there will also be peace in the lower world. Will you sway a little closer to me in the wind?" said the flowering branch, "Ah, for peace Because of this, it may be possible before the spring is gone." So it was swaying itself in the strong spring breeze, and embraced the neighbor.

Peace Contagious One branch in bloom said to his neighboring branch, "This is a dull and empty day." And the other branch answered, "It is indeed empty and empty." At that moment a sparrow realized on one of the branches, and the other sparrow, nearby. And one of the sparrows chirped and said, "My mate has left me." And the other sparrow cried, "My mate has also gone, and she will not return. And what care I?" Then the two birds began to twitter and scold, and soon they were fighting and making harsh noise upon the air. All of a sudden two other sparrows came sailing from the sky, and they sat quietly beside the restless two. And there was calm, and there was peace.

Then the four flew away together in pairs. And the first branch said to his neighboring branch, "That was a mighty zig-zag of sound." And the other branch answered, "Call it what you will, it is now both peaceful and spacious. And if the upper air makes peace it seems to me that those who dwell in the lower might make peace also. Will you not wave in the wind a little nearer to me?" And the first branch said, "Oh, perchance, for peace sake, ere the Spring is over." And then he waved himself with the strong wind to embrace her.
