15、isit his friend with a swan as a gift. But it escaped from the cage on the way. Though he tried hard, he got hold of nothing but a feather. Instead of 5returning home, he continued his journey with the swan feather. When his friend received this unexpected gift, he was deeply moved. And the saying “
