Dewi Sri

Once upon a time, Batara Guru commanded all the gods and goddesses to
contribute their power in order to build a new palace. Anybody who disobeyed this
commandment were considered lazy and would lose their arms and legs.
Hearing the Batara Gurus commandment, Naga god was very anxious because he didnt
have arms or legs. He might not be able do the job. So he asked advice from Batara
Narada who was the younger brother of Batara Guru. Unfortunately Narada was also
confused. The Naga god became very upset.

While the Naga god was crying for his bad luck, three teardrops fell on the
ground. Not long after that, those teardrops became three beautiful shining eggs which
looked like jewels. Then Batara Narada advised him to offer those shining eggs to
Batara Guru.

With the three eggs in his mouth, the Naga god went to the Batara Gurus palace.
On the way, an eagle asked him a question. Surely Naga god could not answer the
question because he was holding the eggs in his mouth. Seeing that, the bird thought that
Naga god was arrogant and the bird attacked him.

Being attacked, one egg fell to earth. Then Naga god was hiding in the bushes but
the bird was waiting for him. The bird attacked for the second time and one egg fell
again. So Naga god only had one egg in his mouth. He kept moving to Batara Gurus
palace.

Finally Naga god arrived at the palace. He offered the egg to the Batara Guru.
And miraculously the egg hatched became a very beautiful baby girl. Naga god gave the
baby girl to the Batara Guru. The baby grew up into a beautiful girl and later known for
Dewi Sri.

will be king after me. He blew three feathers in the air, and said: You should go as they
fly. One feather flew to the east, the second to the west, but the third flew straight up and did
not fly far.

So one brother went to the right, and the other to the left. Simpleton was sad because
his feather did not fly far. Then all at once he saw a trap-door close to the feather. He found
some steps, and went down the door. Then he came to another door, knocked at it. The door
opened, and he saw a fat toad sitting. She asked what he wanted. He answered; I should get
the prettiest and finest carpet in the world. Then she called a young toad; Bring me the
great box!

The young toad brought the box. The fat toad opened it, and gave simpleton a carpet
out of it. The carpet was so beautiful. So Simpleton thanked her, and brought it to the
kingdom. Meanwhile his brothers just got some coarse handkerchiefs from a shepherds
wives whom they had met. When the king saw Simpletons carpet he was very astonished and
said; Well, the kingdom belongs to the Simpleton. But his two brothers argued that it was
impossible that simpleton should be king, They asked the king to make a new agreement.
Then the father said; Who brings me the most beautiful ring will inherit the kingdom. He
blew three feathers, which they were to follow. Those of the two eldest again went east and
west, and simpletons feather flew straight up, and fell down near the trap-door. Again the fat
toad gave him a ring sparkled with jewels. Meanwhile his two brothers just got old carriage-
rings. However they did not cease from tormenting the king until he made a third condition.
So the king declared; Who brings the most beautiful woman home will be the king. He again
blew the three feathers into the air. Then Simpleton went down to the fat toad, and said; I am
to take home the most beautiful woman. The she gave him a yellow turnip which had been
hollowed out. Mournfully Simpleton said; What am I to do with it?. The toad answered;
Just put one of my little toads into it!. Then Simpleton seized one little toad and put her
into the yellow coach. Surprisingly the little toad turned into a beautiful maiden. So
Simpleton took her to the king. On the other hand, his brother brought peasant women to the
kingdom.

When the king saw the women he said; After my death the kingdom belongs to my
youngest son. But the two eldest brothers kept arguing that whose wife could leap through a
ring which hung in the center of the hall would be the king. The king agreed. Then the two
peasant women jumped through the ring but they fell which made their arms and legs broke.
On the other hand, the pretty maiden sprang through the ring as lightly as a deer which made

chronological order using time or place. Commonly narrative text is found in story book;
myth, fable, folklore, etc while recount text is found in biography.
The thing that makes narrative and recount different is the structure in which they are
constructed. Narrative uses conflicts among the participants whether natural conflict, social
