40. 3:01–3:07On the Great Self thinks he, knowing full well the world's vacuity.
41. 3:07–3:12And again, May Shiva's neck shield you from every harm.
42. 3:12–3:15That seems a threatening thunder cloud.
43. 3:15–3:16Where on?
44. 3:16–3:18Bright as the lightning flash.
45. 3:18–3:21Lies Gauri's arm.
46. 3:21–3:23Enough of this tedious work.
47. 3:23–3:27Which fritters away the interest of the audience?
48. 3:27–3:33Let me then most reverently salute the honourable gentleman, and announce our intention to produce
49. 3:33–3:36a drama called, The Little Clay Cart.
50. 3:36–3:43Its author was a man who vied with elephants in lordly grace, whose eyes were those of
51. 3:43–3:47the Chakora bird that feeds on moonbeams.
52. 3:47–3:51Glorious his face as the full moon.
53. 3:51–3:57His person, all have heard, was altogether lovely, first in worth.
54. 3:57–4:04Among the twice-born was this poet, known as Shudraka far over all the earth.
55. 4:04–4:12His virtues depth, unfathomed and alone, and again, the Samaveda, the Rigveda II, the
56. 4:12–4:14science mathematical.
57. 4:14–4:15He knew.
58. 4:15–4:22The arts were in fair courtesans' excel, and all the law of elephants as well.
59. 4:22–4:26Through Shiva's grace, his eye was never dim.
60. 4:26–4:29He saw his son a king in place of him.
61. 4:29–4:36The difficult horse sacrifice he tried successfully entered the fiery tide.
62. 4:36–4:44100 years and 10 days old and died and yet again eager for battle.
63. 4:44–4:50determined foe of scholars chief. Who to the Vader cling? Rich in the riches that
64. 4:50–4:59aesthetics know. Glad, gains the foeman's elephant to show. His valour. Such was Shudraka.

67. 5:30–5:38of love's pure festival in these two hearts, of prudent acts, a lawsuit's wrong and hate,
68. 5:38–5:43a rascal's nature, and the course of fate.
69. 5:43–5:50He walks about and looks around him. Why? This music room of ours is empty.
70. 5:50–5:57I wonder where the actors have gone. Reflecting. Ah, I understand.
71. 5:57–6:05Empty his house. To whom no child was born. Thrice empty his. Who lacks true friends and
72. 6:05–6:14sure. Two fools. The world is empty and forlorn. But all that is. Is empty to the poor. I have
73. 6:14–6:20finished the concert. And I've been practicing so long that the pupils of my eyes are
74. 6:20–6:25dancing. And I'm so hungry that my eyes are crackling like a lotus seed. Dried
75. 6:25–6:31up by the fiercest rays of the summer sun. I'll just call my wife and ask whether there
76. 6:31–6:39is anything for breakfast or not. Hello? Here I am, but no. Both the particular occasion
77. 6:39–6:46and the general custom demand that I speak prakrit. Speaking in prakrit. Confound it.
78. 6:46–6:51I've been practicing so long and I'm so hungry that my limbs are as weak as dried
79. 6:51–6:57up lotus stalks. Suppose I go home and see whether my good wife has got anything ready
80. 6:57–7:05or not. He walks about and looks around him. Here I am at home. I'll just go in. He enters
81. 7:05–7:11and looks about. Merciful heavens! Why in the world is everything in our house turned
82. 7:11–7:18upside down? A long stream of rice water is flowing down the street. The ground,
83. 7:18–7:24black where the iron kettle has been rubbed clean, is as lovely as a girl with the beauty
84. 7:24–7:30marks of black cosmetic on her face. It smells so good that my hunger seems to blaze up and
85. 7:30–7:37hurts me more than ever. Has some hidden treasure come to light? Or am I hungry enough to think
86. 7:37–7:43the whole world is made of rice? There surely isn't any breakfast in our house. And
87. 7:43–7:47and I'm starved to death. But everything seems top-sight of E here.
88. 7:47–7:50One girl is preparing cosmetics.
89. 7:51–7:53Another is weaving garlands of flowers.
90. 7:54–7:56Reflecting. What does it all mean?
91. 7:57–8:00Well, I'll call my good wife and learn the truth.
92. 8:01–8:03He looks toward the dressing room.
93. 8:03–8:06Mistress. Will you come here a moment?
94. 8:08–8:09Enter an actress.
95. 8:10–8:12Here I am, sir.
96. 8:13–8:15You are very welcome, Mistress.
97. 8:16–8:19Command me, sir. What am I to do?
98. 8:20–8:28Mistress. I've been practicing so long and I'm so hungry that my limbs are as weak as dried up lotus stalks.
99. 8:28–8:31Is there anything to eat in the house or not?
100. 8:32–8:34There's everything, sir.
101. 8:35–8:36Well, what?
102. 8:36–8:46For instance, there's rice with sugar, melted butter, curdled milk, rice, and all together.
103. 8:46–8:53It makes you a dish fit for heaven. May the gods always be thus gracious to you.
104. 8:53–8:56All that in our house? Or are you joking?
105. 8:56–9:04Aside. Yes, I will have my joke. Allowed. It's in the marketplace, sir.
106. 9:04–9:12Angrily, you wretched woman, thus shall your own hope be cut off, and death shall find you out.
107. 9:12–9:21For my expectations, like a scaffolding, have been raised so high, only to fall again.
108. 9:21–9:26Forgive me, sir, forgive me. It was only a joke.
109. 9:26–9:30But what do these unusual preparations mean?
110. 9:30–9:35One girl is preparing cosmetics, another is weaving garlands,
111. 9:35–9:41and the very ground is adorned with sacrificial flowers of five different colors.
112. 9:41–9:44This is a fast day, sir.
113. 9:44–9:46What fast?
114. 9:46–9:49The fast for a handsome husband.
115. 9:49–9:53In this world, mistress, or the next?
116. 9:53–9:55In the next world, sir.
117. 9:56–9:57Rathfully.
118. 9:57–9:59Gentlemen, look at this.
119. 10:00–10:30विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्�
120. 10:30–10:38angry with you. Then you will be parted, as surely as the scented hair of some young bride.
121. 10:38–10:44Don't be angry. Sir, it is only that I may have you in the next world that I celebrate
122. 10:44–10:48this fast. She falls at his feet.
123. 10:48–10:54Stand up, mistress, and tell me who is to officiate at this fast.
124. 10:54–10:58Some brahmin of our own sort whom we must invite.
125. 10:58–11:04You may go then. And I will invite some Brahmin of our own sort.
126. 11:04–11:08Very well, sir. Exit.
127. 11:08–11:14Walking about. Good heavens. In this rich city of Ujjaini, how am I to find a Brahmin
128. 11:14–11:22of our own sort? He looks about him. Ah. Here comes Charu Datta's friend, Maitreya.
129. 11:22–11:24Good. I'll ask him.
130. 11:24–11:29My Traeha, you must be the first to break bread in our house today.
131. 11:29–11:34You must invite some other Brahmin. I am busy.
132. 11:34–11:42But, man, the feast is set and you have it all to yourself. Besides, you shall have a present.
133. 11:42–11:47I said no once. Why should you keep on urging me?
134. 11:47–11:51He says no. Well, I must invite some other Brahmin
135. 11:53–11:55Exit
136. 11:55–12:00End of the prologue
137. 12:00–12:03Enter with a cloak in his hand, May Traya
138. 12:04–12:11You must invite some other Brahmin. I am busy and yet I really ought to be seeking invitations from a stranger. Oh
139. 12:12–12:14What a wretched state of affairs
140. 12:14–12:20When good charada was still wealthy, I used to eat my fill of the most deliciously fragrant
141. 12:20–12:22sweetmeats.
142. 12:22–12:27Prepared day and night with the greatest of care, I would sit at the door of the courtyard,
143. 12:27–12:30where I was surrounded by hundreds of dishes.
144. 12:30–12:35And there, like a painter with his paint boxes, I would simply touch them with my fingers
145. 12:35–12:37and thrust them aside.
146. 12:37–12:41I would stand chewing my cud like a bull in the city market.
147. 12:41–12:45And now he is so poor that I have to run here.
148. 12:45–12:49There and everywhere and come home like the pigeons.
149. 12:49–12:52Only to roost now here is this jasmine scented cloak.
150. 12:52–12:56Which Charada's good friend Jirnavrida has sent him.
151. 12:56–12:58He bade me give it to Charada.
152. 12:58–13:01As soon as he had finished his devotions.
153. 13:01–13:03So now I will look for Charada.
154. 13:03–13:06He walks about and looks around him.
155. 13:06–13:08Charada has finished his devotions.
156. 13:08–13:14And here he comes with an offering for the divinities of the house.
157. 13:14–13:19Enter Charudatta as described, and Radhanika.
158. 13:19–13:22Looking up and sighing virally.
159. 13:22–13:27Upon my threshold, where the offering, was straightway seized by swans and flocking
160. 13:27–13:29cranes.
161. 13:29–13:33The grass grows now, and these poor seeds I fling.
162. 13:33–13:38Fall where the mouth of worms their sweetness stains.
163. 13:38–13:43He walks about very slowly and seats himself.
164. 13:43–13:44Maitreya.
165. 13:44–13:46Sharudatta is here.
166. 13:46–13:48I must go and speak to him.
167. 13:48–13:50Approaching.
168. 13:50–13:52My greetings to you.
169. 13:52–13:54May happiness be yours.
170. 13:54–13:58Ah, it is my constant friend Maitreya.
171. 13:58–14:00You are very welcome, my friend.
172. 14:00–14:03Pre-be seated.
173. 14:03–14:04Thank you.
174. 14:04–14:05He seats himself.
175. 14:05–14:07Well, comrade.
176. 14:07–14:11Here is a jasmine scented cloak which your good friend Jirnavrita has sent.
177. 14:11–14:16He bade me give it you as soon as you had finished your devotions.
178. 14:16–14:20He presents the cloak, Charada takes it and remains sunk in thought.
179. 14:20–14:23Well, what are you thinking about?
180. 14:23–14:29My good friend, a candle shining through the deepest dark, is happiness that follows
181. 14:29–14:31sorrow's strife.
182. 14:31–14:35But after bliss when man bears sorrow's mark.
183. 14:35–14:38His body lives a very death in life.
184. 14:38–14:42Well, which would you rather, be dead or be poor?
185. 14:42–14:48Ah, my friend, far better death than sorrow's show and slow.
186. 14:48–14:51Some passing suffering from death may flow.
187. 14:51–14:55But poverty brings never ending woe.
188. 14:55–14:58My dear friend, be not thus cast down.
189. 14:58–15:00Their wealth has been conveyed to the media.
190. 15:00–15:30नाटक आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आ� आ� आ� आप आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ� आ�
191. 15:30–15:37spent attracts no more. Oh, can found the money it is a trifle not worth thinking
192. 15:37–15:42about it is like a cattle boy in the woods afraid of wasps it doesn't stay
193. 15:42–15:48anywhere where it is used for food believe me friend my sorrow does not
194. 15:48–15:55spring from simple loss of gold for fortune is a fickle changing thing whose
195. 15:55–16:00whose favours do not hold, but he whose some time wealth has taken wing.
196. 16:00–16:03Finds bosom friends grow cold.
197. 16:03–16:07Then too, a poor man is a man ashamed.
198. 16:07–16:11From shame, springs want of dignity and worthy fame.
199. 16:11–16:15Such want gives rise to insults hard to bear.
200. 16:15–16:23Then scums despondency, and thence, despair, despair breeds folly, death is folly's
201. 16:23–16:24fruit are.
202. 16:24–16:27The lack of money is all evil's root.
203. 16:27–16:33But just remember what a trifle money is, after all, and be more cheerful.
204. 16:33–16:38My friend, the poverty of a man is to him a home of cares.
205. 16:38–16:41A shame that haunts the mind.
206. 16:41–16:44Another form of warfare with mankind.
207. 16:44–16:46The abhorrence of his friends.
208. 16:46–16:52A source of hate, from strangers, and from each one's loving mate.
209. 16:52–16:57But if his wife despise him, then, Tewa meet.
210. 16:57–17:00In some lone wood to seek a safe retreat.
211. 17:00–17:08The flame of sorrow, torturing his soul, burns fiercely, yet contrives to leave him whole.
212. 17:08–17:13Comrade, I have made my offering to the divinities of the house.
213. 17:13–17:18Do you two go and offer sacrifice to the divine mothers at a place where four roads
214. 17:18–17:19meet?
215. 17:19–17:20No.
216. 17:20–17:21No.
217. 17:21–17:24Why not?
218. 17:24–17:28Because the gods are not gracious to you even when thus honored.
219. 17:28–17:31So what is the use of worshipping?
220. 17:31–17:34Not so, my friend, not so.
221. 17:34–17:37This is the constant duty of a householder.
222. 17:37–17:45The gods feel ever glad content in the gifts and the self-chastisement, the meditations
223. 17:45–17:50and the prayers of those who banish worldly cares.
224. 17:50–17:52Why then do you hesitate?
225. 17:52–17:56Go and offer sacrifice to the mothers."
226. 17:56–17:58No, I'm not going.
227. 17:58–18:00You must send somebody else.
228. 18:00–18:03Anyway, everything seems to go wrong with me.
229. 18:03–18:05Poor Brahmin that I am.
230. 18:05–18:07It's like a reflection in a mirror.
231. 18:07–18:12The right side becomes the left, and the left becomes the right.
232. 18:12–18:18Besides, at this hour of the evening, people are abroad upon the king's highway, courtesans,
233. 18:18–18:25Courtiers, servants, and royal favourites, they will take me now for fair pray, just as the
234. 18:25–18:29black snake-out frog hunting snaps up the mouse in his path.
235. 18:29–18:31But what will you do sitting here?
236. 18:31–18:37Good then, remain, and I will finish my devotions.
237. 18:37–18:41Stop, Vasanticina, stop!
238. 18:41–18:48Vasantacina, pursued by the courtier, by Sanztonaka, and the servant.
239. 18:48–18:57Vasantacina. Stop. Stop. Ah. Why should fear transform your tenderness? Why should the dainty
240. 18:57–19:05feet feel such distress? That twinkle in the dance so prettily. Why should your eyes,
241. 19:05–19:07Thus startled into fear.
242. 19:07–19:09Dart-side long looks.
243. 19:09–19:10Why?
244. 19:10–19:12Like the timid deer.
245. 19:12–19:14Before pursuing hunters.
246. 19:14–19:16Should you flee?
247. 19:16–19:17Stop.
248. 19:17–19:18Vesantasina.
249. 19:18–19:20SH top.
250. 19:20–19:21Wife flee.
251. 19:21–19:22And run.
252. 19:22–19:25And SH tumble in your turning.
253. 19:25–19:26Be kind.
254. 19:26–19:28You shall not die.
255. 19:28–19:29Oh.
256. 19:29–19:30SH top your feet.
257. 19:30–19:31With love.
258. 19:31–19:33Sweet girl.
259. 19:33–19:38My tortured heart is burning, as on a heap of coals a piece of meat.
260. 19:38–19:46Stop, courtesan, stop, in fear you flee, away from me, as a summer peahen should.
261. 19:46–19:53But my lord and master struts fast and faster, like a woodcock in the wood.
262. 19:53–19:59Va Santicina, stop, stop, why should you tremble?
263. 19:59–20:00you flee.
264. 20:00–20:18अगिवा like the plantain tree, your garments border, red and fair, is all a shiver in the air. Now and again, a lotus bud falls to the ground. As red as blood, a red real garvein you seem.
265. 20:18–20:19Wentz.
266. 20:19–20:20Smiton.
267. 20:20–20:23Drops of crimson stream.
268. 20:23–20:24Stop.
269. 20:24–20:25Vesantasina.
270. 20:25–20:27SH Top.
271. 20:27–20:31You wake my passion, my desire, my love.
272. 20:31–20:34You drive away my shall be in bed at night.
273. 20:34–20:37Both fear and tearishing your heart to move.
274. 20:37–20:41You trip an SH tumble in your head long flight.
275. 20:41–20:44But Ravana forced Kunti to his will.
276. 20:44–20:47Just show shall I enjoy you to the fill.
277. 20:47–20:57Ah! Vasantacena! Why should your fleet of flight Outstrip my flying feet? Why? Like a snake in fright,
278. 20:57–21:06Before the bird kings might, Thus seek to flee, My sweet! Could I not catch the storm wind in his flight,
279. 21:06–21:14Yet would not seize upon you, Though I might? Sansternaca! Lished unto me! Sure!
280. 21:14–21:38Thish whip of robber love. Thish dancing girl. Eater of fish. Destroyer of her kin. Thish schnoob nose. Stubborn. Love box. Cortison. Thish clothesline. Wanton creature. Made of sin I gave her ten sweet names. And still, she will not bend her to my will.
281. 21:38–21:44Kautya. As Kautya's fingers strike, the loots tense string.
282. 21:44–21:51The dancing earring smites your wounded cheek. Why should you flee? With dreadful tear a
283. 21:51–21:55week. As flees the crane when heaven's thunders ring.
284. 21:55–22:00Sants. Your jingling gems. Girl.
285. 22:00–22:04Clink like anything. Like Draupadi you flee.
286. 22:04–22:07When Rama kishtha. I'll sheeze you quick.
287. 22:07–22:15As once the monkey king, shized subhadra, vishvavassu's sweet shishtha, servant.
288. 22:15–22:17He's the royal protege.
289. 22:17–22:23Do whatever he may say, and you shall have good fish and flesh to eat.
290. 22:23–22:29For when dogs have all the fish and the flesh that they can wish, even carrion seems to
291. 22:29–22:31them no longer sweet.
292. 22:31–22:32Cortia.
293. 22:32–22:35Mistress Vasanticina.
294. 22:35–22:38The girdle drooping low upon your hips.
295. 22:38–22:41Flashes as brilliant as the shining stars.
296. 22:41–22:44The wondrous terror of your fleeing Mars.
297. 22:44–22:46Your charms.
298. 22:46–22:47For Red Realgar.
299. 22:47–22:48Loosened.
300. 22:48–22:50Slips.
301. 22:50–22:52As on an imaged god.
302. 22:52–22:54From cheek and lips.
303. 22:54–22:55Sants.
304. 22:55–22:58We're chasing you with all our mane and might.
305. 22:58–23:02As dogs are jackal when they hunt and find it.
306. 23:02–23:05But you are quick and nimble in your flight.
307. 23:05–23:09And sh teal my heart with all the roots that bind it.
308. 23:09–23:12Palavaka, Parabhratika.
309. 23:12–23:16Mehta, a man, a man.
310. 23:16–23:18Don't be a coward.
311. 23:18–23:21Madhavika, Madhavika.
312. 23:21–23:23Laughing, fool.
313. 23:23–23:26She is calling her servants.
314. 23:26–23:29Masha, is she calling a woman?
315. 23:29–23:37Why, of course. Women. I kill hundreds of, M. I'm a brave man.
316. 23:37–23:45Seeing that no one answers. Alas, how comes it that my very servants have fallen away from me?
317. 23:45–23:49I shall have to defend myself by mother with.
318. 23:49–23:51Don't stop the search.
319. 23:51–24:01Shgral, Vasantasena, Shgral for your cuckoo parabritica, or for your Blossom palavaka, or for all the month of May.
320. 24:01–24:04Who's going to save you when I'm chasing you?
321. 24:04–24:12Yshpeak of Bimasena, or the Shon of Jamadanyi, that thrice mighty one?
322. 24:12–24:13The ten-necked ogre?
323. 24:13–24:15Shon of Kunti fair?
324. 24:15–24:19Just look at me, my fingers in your hair.
325. 24:19–24:23Just like Deuzhasana, I'll tear and tear.
326. 24:23–24:26Look, look, my shwerd is sharp.
327. 24:26–24:29Goodbye, poor head.
328. 24:29–24:32Let's chop it off or kill you dead.
329. 24:32–24:34Then do not try my wrath to shun.
330. 24:34–24:38When you must die, your life is done.
331. 24:38–24:41Sir, I am a weak woman.
332. 24:41–24:44That is why you are still alive.
333. 24:44–24:47That is why you're not murdered.
334. 24:47–24:51Aside, oh, his very courtesy frightens me.
335. 24:51–24:55Thumb, I will try this, aloud.
336. 24:55–24:58Sir, what do you expect from this pursuit?
337. 24:58–25:00My jewels?
338. 25:00–25:02विचार-विमर्च्छि।
339. 25:02–25:04विचार-विमर्च्छि।
340. 25:04–25:06विचार-विमर्च्छि।
341. 25:06–25:08विचार-विमर्च्छि।
342. 25:08–25:10विचार-विमर्च्छि।
343. 25:10–25:12विचार-विमर्च्छि।
344. 25:12–25:14विचार-विमर्च्छि।
345. 25:14–25:16विचार-विमर्च्छि।
346. 25:16–25:18विचार-विमर्च्छि।
347. 25:18–25:20You mushed love me.
348. 25:20–25:27Indignantly, heavens, you weary me. Come, leave me. Your words are an insult."
349. 25:27–25:36Laughing and clapping his hands. Look, Masha, look. The courtesan's daughter is mighty affectionate with me.
350. 25:36–25:44Isn't she? Here she says, come on. Heavens, you're weary. You're tired. No.
351. 25:44–25:50I haven't been walking to another village or another city. No. Little mistress.
352. 25:50–25:56I shwear by the gentleman's head. I shwear by my own feet.
353. 25:56–26:02It's only by chasing about at your heels that I've grown tired and weary."
354. 26:02–26:08Aside. What? Is it possible that the idiot does not understand when she says,
355. 26:08–26:10You wary me?
356. 26:10–26:11Allowed.
357. 26:11–26:13Vasantasina.
358. 26:13–26:16Your words have no place in the dwelling of a courtesan.
359. 26:16–26:21Which, as you know, is friend to every youth.
360. 26:21–26:24Remember, you are common as the flower
361. 26:24–26:26that grows beside the road.
362. 26:26–26:30In bitter truth, your body has its price.
363. 26:30–26:33Your beauty's dower is his.
364. 26:33–26:36Who pays the market's current rate?
365. 26:36–26:41Then serve the man you love and him you hate.
366. 26:41–26:42And again?
367. 26:42–26:47The wisest Brahmin and the meanest fool, Bade in the self-same pool.
368. 26:47–26:55Beneath the peacock, flowering plants bend low, No less beneath the crow, the Brahmin,
369. 26:55–26:58warrior, merchant.
370. 26:58–27:01Sail along with all the vulgar throng.
371. 27:01–27:06You are the pool, the flowering plant, The boat, and on your beauty every man
372. 27:06–27:13man may do't. Yet true love would be won by virtue, not violence.
373. 27:13–27:20But, Masha, ever since the slave wench went into the park where Kama's temple stands,
374. 27:20–27:27she has been in love with a poor man, with Charudatta, and she doesn't love me any more.
375. 27:27–27:32His house is to the left. Look out and don't let her slip out of our hands.
376. 27:32–27:49Aside. Poor fool. He has said the very thing he should have concealed. So Vasantasina is in love with Charudatta. The proverb is right. Pearl suits with Pearl. Well, I have had enough of this fool.
377. 27:49–27:58Allowed. Did you say the good merchant's house was to the left? You jackass. Yes. His house is to the left.
378. 27:58–28:07Aside, O, wonderful, if his house is really at my left hand, then the scoundrel has helped
379. 28:07–28:10me in the very act of hurting me.
380. 28:10–28:13For he has guided me to my law."
381. 28:13–28:18But Masha, it's pitch dark and it's like hunting for a grain of soot in a pile of
382. 28:18–28:20spotted beans.
383. 28:20–28:24Now you shave a Santa-sina and now you don't.
384. 28:24–28:26Pitch dark it is indeed.
385. 28:26–28:34The sudden darkness seems to steal the keenness of my sight, my open eyes, as with a seal.
386. 28:34–28:37A closed by blackest night.
387. 28:37–28:38And again?
388. 28:38–28:42Darkness anoints my body and the sky.
389. 28:42–28:45Drops ointment of thick darkness.
390. 28:45–28:49Till mine eye is all unprofitable grown to me.
391. 28:49–28:52Like service done to them who cheat and lie.
392. 28:52–28:56Meshda, I'm looking for Vasantasina.
393. 28:56–29:00Is there anything you can trace her by, Jackass?
394. 29:00–29:03Like what? For instance.
395. 29:03–29:10Like the tinkling of her jewels, for instance, or the fragrance of her garlands.
396. 29:10–29:20I hear the smell of her garlands, but my nose is stuffed so full of darkness that I don't see the sound of her jewels very clearly.
397. 29:20–29:30to Vasantasina. Aside. Vasantasina. T is true. The night is dark. Oh, timid maid. And like
398. 29:30–29:37the lightning hidden in the cloud, you are not seen. Yet you will be betrayed by fragrant
399. 29:37–29:43garlands and by anklets loud. Have you heard me? Vasantasina.
400. 29:43–29:51herself. Heard and understood, she removes the ankle rings, lays aside the garlands,
401. 29:51–29:57and takes a few steps. Feeling her way, I can feel the wall of the house. And here is
402. 29:57–30:00the side entrance. But a laugh.
403. 30:00–30:02विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
404. 30:02–30:04विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
405. 30:04–30:06विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
406. 30:06–30:08विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
407. 30:08–30:10विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
408. 30:10–30:12विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
409. 30:12–30:14विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
410. 30:14–30:16विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
411. 30:16–30:20Thus, the poor man's kinsmen do not heed his will.
412. 30:20–30:27The friends who loved him once, now stand afar, his sorrows multiply, his strength is
413. 30:27–30:32kneel, behold, his character's bright shining star.
414. 30:32–30:34Fades like the waning moon.
415. 30:34–30:39And deeds of ill, that others do, are counted to him still.
416. 30:39–30:43And again, no man holds converse with him.
417. 30:43–30:50One will greet, with due respect the poor man when they meet, where rich men hold a feast.
418. 30:50–30:57If he draw near, he meets with scornful looks for looks of cheer, where vulgar throngs are
419. 30:57–30:58gathered.
420. 30:58–31:03T is the same, his scanty raiment wakes his heartfelt shame.
421. 31:03–31:06Five are the deadly sins we knew before.
422. 31:06–31:11Alas, I find the sixth is to be poor.
423. 31:11–31:20And yet again, ah, poverty, I pity thee, that so, to me thou clingest, as thy dearest friend,
424. 31:20–31:23when my poor life has met its woeful end.
425. 31:23–31:28I sadly wonder, wither thou wilt go.
426. 31:28–31:34Betraying his embarrassment, well, comrade, if I must go, at least let Radhanyika go
427. 31:34–31:41with me to keep me company. Radhanika, you are to accompany my Traya.
428. 31:41–31:48Yes, sir, my Traya, Mistress Radhanika, do you take the offering and the candle while
429. 31:48–31:56I open the side door? He does so. It seems as if the door took pity on me and opened
430. 31:56–32:06of itself. I will lose no time. But enter. She looks in. What? A candle? Oh dear. Oh dear.
431. 32:06–32:12She puts it out with her skirt and enters. What was that, Maitreya?
432. 32:12–32:18I opened the side door and the wind came through all in a lump and blew out the candle.
433. 32:18–32:23Suppose you go out by the side door. Radhanika, and I will follow as soon as I have gone
434. 32:23–32:27into the courtyard and lighted the candle again. Exit.
435. 32:27–32:32Meshda, Meshda, I'm looking for Vicentacina.
436. 32:32–32:35Keep on looking, keep on looking.
437. 32:35–32:41There's so. Meshda, Meshda, I've caught her, I've caught her.
438. 32:41–32:44Idiot, you've caught me.
439. 32:44–32:51You stand right here. Meshda, and S-H-T-A-Y where you're put. He renews the search
440. 32:51–32:53and seizes the servant.
441. 32:53–32:57Masha, Masha, I've caught her.
442. 32:57–32:58I've caught her.
443. 32:58–33:02Master, you've caught me, you're servant.
444. 33:02–33:03Masha here.
445. 33:03–33:05Shervant here.
446. 33:05–33:06Masha.
447. 33:06–33:07Shervant.
448. 33:07–33:08Shervant.
449. 33:08–33:09Masha.
450. 33:09–33:12Now, shtay where you're put.
451. 33:12–33:13Both of you.
452. 33:13–33:17He renews the search and seizes Red Annika by the hair.
453. 33:17–33:18Masha.
454. 33:18–33:19Masha.
455. 33:19–33:27time I've caught her. I've caught Vicenticina. Through the black night she fled. Fled she.
456. 33:27–33:33Her garlands schmell betrayed her. Like Chanakya caught Draupadi. I caught her here and stayed
457. 33:33–33:35her.
458. 33:35–33:44Ah! Proud to be so young. So fair. Too high thy love must not aspire. For now thy blossom
459. 33:44–33:50fragrant hair. That merits richest gems and rare. Serves, but to drag thee through the
460. 33:50–34:00mire. I've got your head. Girl, got it tight. By the hair. The locks. And the curls. To.
461. 34:00–34:10Now, sh'cream. Squeak. Sh'grawl with all your might. Shiva. Ishwara. Shankara. Shamhu.
462. 34:10–34:16In terror, oh, sirs, what does this mean?
463. 34:16–34:20You jackass, it's another voice.
464. 34:20–34:23Masha, the wench has changed her voice.
465. 34:23–34:26The way a cat changes her voice
466. 34:26–34:30when she wants this home cream of curdled milk.
467. 34:30–34:32Changed her voice.
468. 34:32–34:35Strange. Yet why so strange?
469. 34:35–34:37She trod the stage.
470. 34:37–34:39She learned the arts.
471. 34:39–34:44She studied to deceive our hearts, and now she practices her parts.
472. 34:45–34:47Enter Maitreya.
473. 34:48–34:53Look! In the gentle evening breeze, the flame of the candle is fluttering like the heart of a goat that
474. 34:54–34:55goes to the altar.
475. 34:56–34:59He approaches and discovers Radanaka.
476. 35:00–35:02विस्टरस रदानेका
477. 35:02–35:06मश्टर, मश्टर, आमन, आमन
478. 35:06–35:06विस्टरस रडानेका, मश्टर, मश्टर, आमन, आमन
479. 35:06–35:15This is right. This is perfectly right. That stranger should force their way into the house. Just because Charodata is poor.
480. 35:15–35:19Oh, my Traya. See how they insult me.
481. 35:19–35:24What? Insult you? No, they are insulting us.
482. 35:24–35:28Very well. They are insulting you, then.
483. 35:28–35:31But they aren't using violence?
484. 35:31–35:34Yes. Yes.
485. 35:34–35:35Really?
486. 35:35–35:37Really?
487. 35:37–35:44Raising his staff angrily. No, sir, man, a dog will show his teeth in his own kennel. And
488. 35:44–35:50I am a Brahmin. My staff is crooked as my fortunes. But it can still split a dry bamboo
489. 35:50–35:53or a rascal's paint.
490. 35:53–35:58Have mercy, oh great Brahmin, have mercy!
491. 35:58–36:04Discovers the courtier. He is not the sinner. Discovers sans fanica. Ah, here is the
492. 36:04–36:07Well, you brother-in-law to the king.
493. 36:07–36:14Sansthanaka, you scoundrel, you coward, this is perfectly proper, isn't it?
494. 36:14–36:20Charada the good is a poor man now, true, but are not his virtues an ornament to Ujaini.
495. 36:20–36:25And so men break into his house and insult his servants.
496. 36:25–36:30Insult not him, laid low by poverty, for none are counted poor by mighty fate.
497. 36:30–36:33Yet he who falls from virtue's high estate.
498. 36:33–36:40Though he be rich, no man as poor as he. Betraying his embarrassment. Have mercy.
499. 36:40–36:48Oh great Brahmin! Have mercy! We intended no insolence. We merely mistook this lady for
500. 36:48–36:55another. For we sought an amorous maiden. What? This one?
501. 36:55–37:02Heaven forbid! One whose youth is in the guidance of her own sweet will. She disappeared.
502. 37:02–37:09unconscious of the truth. We did what seems a purpose deed of ill. I pray you accept this
503. 37:09–37:18all in all of humblest supplication. He drops his sword, folds his hands, and falls at Maitreya's
504. 37:18–37:19feet.
505. 37:19–37:25Good man, rise, rise. When I reviled you, I did not know you. Now I know you and I
506. 37:25–37:27ask your pardon.
507. 37:27–37:30It is I who should ask pardon.
508. 37:30–37:33I will rise on one condition.
509. 37:33–37:35And that is,
510. 37:35–37:39That you will not tell Sharodatta what has happened here.
511. 37:39–37:41I will be silent.
512. 37:41–37:43Brahmin!
513. 37:43–37:45This gracious act of thine!
514. 37:45–37:47I bow my neck to bear.
515. 37:47–37:50For never could this sort of mine,
516. 37:50–37:53With virtues steel compare.
517. 37:53–37:54Indignantly!
518. 37:54–37:55But Meshda!
519. 37:55–38:02What makes you fold your hands show helplessly and fall at the feet of fishmanican?
520. 38:02–38:04I was afraid.
521. 38:04–38:06What were you afraid of?
522. 38:06–38:09Of Charudata's virtues.
523. 38:09–38:10Virtues?
524. 38:10–38:11He?
525. 38:11–38:15You can go into his house and not find a thing to eat.
526. 38:15–38:16No.
527. 38:16–38:17No.
528. 38:17–38:21His loving kindness unto such as we.
529. 38:21–38:23Has brought him low at last.
530. 38:23–38:30him could no man learn what insults be. Or ear his wealth was passed. This well-filled
531. 38:30–38:38poor, that in its summer day, gave others drink. It self is dried away.
532. 38:38–38:45Impatiently. Who is the shon of a slave wench anyway? Brave Shvataketu is he. Pandu's
533. 38:45–38:53child, or rather's Sean, the ten-necked ogre wild, or Indra-data, or again, is he
534. 38:53–39:01Sean of brave Rama and of fair Kunti, or Dharma-boot, Ashvathaman-bold, perhaps Jattayu's
535. 39:01–39:04shelf, that vulture old fool.
536. 39:04–39:07I will tell you who Charu-data is.
537. 39:07–39:11A tree of life to them whose sorrows grow.
538. 39:11–39:14Beneath its fruit of virtue bending low.
539. 39:14–39:22to good men. Virtues touchstone he. The mirror of the learned. And the sea. Where all the
540. 39:22–39:30tides of character unite. A righteous man. Whom pride could never blight. A treasure house.
541. 39:30–39:37With human virtues stored. Curtisies essence. Honours precious horde. He doth to life
542. 39:37–39:46its fullest meaning give. So good is he. We others breathe. Not live. Let us be gone.
543. 39:46–39:53Without Vasantasina? Vasantasina has disappeared. How?
544. 39:53–39:59Like sick men's strength. Or like the blind man's sight. Like the fool's judgment.
545. 40:00–40:18Like the slugards might. Like thoughtless scoundrels store of wisdom's light. Like love. When foam and fan are slumbering wrath. So did she vanish. When you crossed her path. I'm not going without the Santasena.
546. 40:18–40:29And did you never hear this? To hold a horse. You need a rain. To hold an elephant. A chain. To hold a woman. Use a heart.
547. 40:29–40:37depart. And if you haven't won? Depart. If you're going, go along. I'm not going.
548. 40:37–40:41Very well. I will go. Exit.
549. 40:41–40:48Mashed is gone. Sure enough. To my trayor. Well, you man with the head that looks like
550. 40:48–40:53a carrot. You mannequin. Take a sheet. Take a sheet.
551. 40:53–40:57We have already been invited to take a seat.
552. 40:57–40:58By whom?
553. 40:58–41:04By destiny Stand up, then, stand up
554. 41:04–41:07We shall When?
555. 41:07–41:12When fate is kind again Weep, then, weep
556. 41:12–41:15We have wept Who made you?
557. 41:15–41:20Poverty Laugh, then, laugh
558. 41:20–41:23Laugh we shall When?
559. 41:23–41:26Charodata is happy once more.
560. 41:26–41:28You mannequin!
561. 41:28–41:32Give poor little Charodata fish mess-hague from me!
562. 41:32–41:35Fish wench with golden ornaments and golden jewels.
563. 41:35–41:41Fish female SHT age manager looking after the rehearsal of a new play.
564. 41:41–41:43Fish for Santacena!
565. 41:43–41:48She has been in love with you ever since she went into the park where karma's
566. 41:48–41:50temple stands.
567. 41:50–41:53And when we tried to conciliate her by force.
568. 41:53–41:55She went into your house.
569. 41:55–42:00Now if you send her away your shelf and hand her over to me.
570. 42:00–42:02If you restore her at once.
571. 42:02–42:05Without any lawsuit in court.
572. 42:05–42:07Then I'll be friends with you forever.
573. 42:07–42:09But if you don't restore her.
574. 42:09–42:12There will be a fight to the death.
575. 42:12–42:13Remember.
576. 42:13–42:16Shmira Pumpkin SH Talk with Kow Dung.
577. 42:16–42:18Keep your vegetables dried.
578. 42:18–42:21Cook your rice in winter evenings.
579. 42:21–42:28be sure your meat is fried. Then let, em stand, and they will not. Bothers, homely,
580. 42:28–42:35schmell and rot. Tell it to him prettily. Tell it to him craftily. Tell it to him show that
581. 42:35–42:40I can hear it as I rush in the dove coat on the top of my own palace. If you shay
582. 42:40–42:47it different, I'll chew your head like an apple caught in the crack of a door.
583. 42:47–42:49Well, I shall tell him.
584. 42:49–42:50Aside.
585. 42:50–42:52Tell me, Shervant.
586. 42:52–42:54Is Masha really gone?
587. 42:54–42:57Yes, sir.
588. 42:57–43:00Then we will go as quickly as we can.
589. 43:00–43:03Then take your sword, Master.
590. 43:03–43:05You can keep it.
591. 43:05–43:07Here it is, Master.
592. 43:07–43:10Take your sword, Master.
593. 43:10–43:12Taking it by the wrong end.
594. 43:12–43:16My shwerd, red as a radish skin,
595. 43:16–43:23There finds the time to molder. She how it sheleeps its sheath within. I put it on my shoulder.
596. 43:23–43:31While Cursan bitches yellp at me. I roam, like a hunted jackal. Home."
597. 43:31–43:35Sansternaka and the Servant walk about. Then accent.
598. 43:35–43:42Mr. Sradanika, you must not tell good charodata of this outrage. I am sure you would only
599. 43:42–43:44add to the poor man's sorrows.
600. 43:44–43:50Good my Traya, you know Radhanika. Her lips are sealed.
601. 43:50–43:52So be it.
602. 43:52–44:00To Vasanthasena, Radhanika, Rohasena likes the fresh air, but he will be cold in the evening chill.
603. 44:00–44:07Pray bring him into the house and cover him with this mantle. He gives her the mantle.
604. 44:07–44:16To herself, see, he thinks I am his servant. She takes the mantle and perceives its perfume.
605. 44:16–44:22Oddently to herself, oh, beautiful, the mantle is fragrant with jasmine.
606. 44:22–44:27His youthful days are not wholly indifferent to the pleasures of the world.
607. 44:27–44:32She wraps it about her, without letting Charudattasi
608. 44:32–44:39Come, Radha Nika, take Rohasinam and enter the heart of the house.
609. 44:39–44:45To herself, Ahmi unhappy, that have little part or lot in your heart.
610. 44:45–44:50Come, Radha Nika, will you not even answer?
611. 44:50–44:57Alas, when man once sees that miserable day, when fate almighty sweeps his wealth away,
612. 44:57–45:00Then ancient friendships will no longer be

615. 45:34–45:39Oh, you need not fear that you are looking at another man's wife.
616. 45:39–45:43This is Vasantasina, who has been in love with you ever since she saw you in the garden
617. 45:43–45:46where Kama's temple stands.
618. 45:46–45:48What?
619. 45:48–45:55This is Vasantasina, aside, my love for whom, my fortune spent my wretched self in
620. 45:55–46:01between has rent. Light cowards anger, inward bent.
621. 46:01–46:05My friend that brother in law of the king says,
622. 46:05–46:06Well?
623. 46:06–46:11This wench with golden ornaments and golden jewels. This female stage manager looking
624. 46:11–46:17after the rehearsal of a new play. This vasantasina, she has been in love with you ever since
625. 46:17–46:23she went into the park where Kama's temple stands, and when we tried to conciliate
626. 46:23–46:31her by force. She went into your house. To herself. Tried to conciliate me by force.
627. 46:31–46:37Truly, I am honored by these words. Now if you send her away yourself and hand
628. 46:37–46:43her over to me. If you restore her at once. Without any lawsuit in court. Then I'll be
629. 46:43–46:49friends with you forever. Otherwise, there will be a fight to the death.
630. 46:49–46:53Temp-tuously, he is a fool, to himself.
631. 46:53–46:58How is this maiden worthy of the worship that we pay a goddess?
632. 46:58–47:06For now although I bury her enter, yet she seeks, to spare my poverty, now enters here,
633. 47:06–47:08though men are known to her.
634. 47:08–47:14Yet all she speaks, contains no word to wound the modest ear.
635. 47:14–47:22Allowed. Mistress Vasantasina. I have unwittingly made myself guilty of an offense. For I greeted
636. 47:22–47:28as a servant one whom I did not recognize. I bend my neck to ask your pardon.
637. 47:28–47:36It is I who have offended by this unseemly intrusion. I bow my head to seek your forgiveness.
638. 47:36–47:42Yes. With your pretty bows you too have knocked your heads together. Till they look like
639. 47:42–47:47a couple of rice fields. I also bow my head like a camel colts knee and beseech you both
640. 47:47–47:52to stand up. He does so, then rises.
641. 47:52–47:57Very well, let us no longer trouble ourselves with conventions.
642. 47:57–48:04To herself, what a delightfully clever hint. But it would hardly be proper to spend the
643. 48:04–48:11night. Considering how I came hither. Well, I will at least say this much. Allowed,
644. 48:11–48:17If I am to receive thus much of your favour, sir, I should be glad to leave these jewels
645. 48:17–48:19in your house.
646. 48:19–48:24It was for the sake of the jewels that those scoundrels pursued me.
647. 48:24–48:28This house is not worthy of the trust.
648. 48:28–48:34You mistake, sir, it is to men that treasures are entrusted, not to houses.
649. 48:34–48:39Maitreya, will you receive the jewels?
650. 48:39–48:41I am much indebted to you.
651. 48:41–48:44He hands him the jewels.
652. 48:44–48:47Receiving them, Heaven bless you, Madam.
653. 48:47–48:51Fool! They are only entrusted to us.
654. 48:51–48:56Aside! Then the thieves may take them, for all I care.
655. 48:56–48:59In a very short time.
656. 48:59–49:02Which she has entrusted to us, belongs to us.
657. 49:02–49:05I shall restore them.
658. 49:05–49:12I should be grateful, sir, if this gentle man would accompany me home.
659. 49:12–49:16My Tria, pray accompany our guest.
660. 49:16–49:21She walks as gracefully as a female swan, and you are the gay flamingo to accompany
661. 49:21–49:27her, but I am only a poor Brahmin, and wherever I go, the people will fall upon me just
662. 49:27–49:32as dogs will snap at a victim dragged to the crossroads.
663. 49:32–49:35Very well, I will accompany her myself.
664. 49:35–49:37Let the torches be lighted.
665. 49:37–49:41To ensure our safety on the highway.
666. 49:41–49:44Vardamanaka, light the torches.
667. 49:44–49:50Aside to Matriya, what, light torches without oil?
668. 49:50–49:54Aside to Charadatta, these torches of ours are like courtesans who despise their poor
669. 49:54–49:55lovers.
670. 49:55–49:59They won't light up unless you feed them.
671. 49:59–50:00Enough.
672. 50:00–50:30विचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाविचार-विमाव
673. 50:30–50:34We have reached your home. Pray enter.
674. 50:34–50:39Vasantasina gazes ardently at him. Then exit.
675. 50:39–50:46Comrade, Vasantasina is gone. Come. Let us go home.
676. 50:46–50:53All creatures from the highway take their flight. The watchmen pace their rounds before our sight.
677. 50:53–51:01To forestall treachery is just and right. For many sins find shelter in the night.
678. 51:01–51:09He walks about, and you shall guard this golden casket by night, and Vardamanaka by day.
679. 51:09–51:12Very well, Exe and Amba.
680. 51:12–51:17Enter a maid.
681. 51:17–51:24I am sent with a message to my mistress by her mother. I must go in and find my mistress.
682. 51:24–51:27She walks about and looks around her.
683. 51:27–51:29There is my mistress.
684. 51:29–51:31She is painting a picture
685. 51:31–51:34and putting her whole heart into it.
686. 51:34–51:37I must go and speak to her.
687. 51:37–51:40Then appear the love-lawn Vasantacina,
688. 51:40–51:43Seated, and Medanica.
689. 51:43–51:46Well, girl, and then.
690. 51:46–51:50But mistress, you were not speaking of anything.
691. 51:50–51:52What do you mean?
692. 51:52–51:54Why, what did I say?
693. 51:54–51:57You said, and then
694. 51:57–51:59puckering her brows.
695. 51:59–52:02Oh, yes, so I did.
696. 52:02–52:04Approaching, Mistress,
697. 52:04–52:10your mother sends word that you should bathe and then offer worship to the gods.
698. 52:10–52:15You may tell my mother that I shall not take the ceremonial bath today.
699. 52:15–52:19A Brahmin must offer worship in my place.
700. 52:19–52:23Yes, Mistress, exit.
701. 52:23–52:30My dear mistress, it is love, not naughtiness, that asks the question, but what does this
702. 52:30–52:31mean?
703. 52:31–52:36Tell me, Mother Nika, how do I seem to you?
704. 52:36–52:42My mistress is so absent-minded that I know her heart is filled with longing for somebody.
705. 52:42–52:48Well guessed, my mother Nika is quick to fathom another's heart.
706. 52:48–52:55I am very, very glad, yes, Karma is indeed mighty, and his great festival is welcome when
707. 52:55–52:56one is young.
708. 52:56–53:03But tell me, mistress, is it a king, or a king's favorite, whom you worship?
709. 53:03–53:08Girl, I wish to love, not to worship.
710. 53:08–53:13Is it a Brahman that excites your passion, some youths distinguished for very particular
711. 53:13–53:15learning?
712. 53:15–53:18A Brahmin I should have to reverence.
713. 53:19–53:24Or is it some young merchant, grown enormously wealthy from visiting many cities?
714. 53:25–53:33A merchant, girl, must go to other countries and leave you behind, no matter how much you love him.
715. 53:33–53:36And the separation makes you very sad.
716. 53:37–53:42It isn't a king, nor a favourite, nor a Brahmin, nor a merchant.
717. 53:42–53:45Who is it then that the princess loves?
718. 53:45–53:51Girl, girl, you went with me to the park where Karma's temple stands?
719. 53:51–53:53Yes, mistress.
720. 53:53–53:58And yet you ask, as if you were a perfect stranger.
721. 53:58–54:05Now I know, is it the man who comforted you when you asked to be protected?
722. 54:05–54:08Well, what was his name?
723. 54:08–54:11Why, he lives in the merchant's quarter.
724. 54:11–54:14But I asked you for his name.
725. 54:14–54:20His name, Mistress, is a good woman in itself. His name is Charuditta.
726. 54:20–54:26Joyfully, good, mother-nika, good. You have guessed it.
727. 54:26–54:32Aside, so much for that, aloud, Mistress, they say he is poor.
728. 54:32–54:42That is the very reason why I love him. For a courtesan who sets her heart on a poor man is blameless in the eyes of the world.
729. 54:42–54:49But, Mistress, do the butterflies visit the mango tree when its blossoms have fallen?
730. 54:49–54:54That is just why we call that sort of a girl a butterfly.
731. 54:54–55:00Well, Mistress, if you love him, why don't you go and visit him at once?
732. 55:00–55:02नाटक विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
733. 55:02–55:04नाटक विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
734. 55:04–55:06नाटक विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
735. 55:06–55:08नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
736. 55:08–55:10नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
737. 55:10–55:12नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
738. 55:12–55:14नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
739. 55:14–55:16नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
740. 55:16–55:24him? You have guessed it, a voice behind the scenes. Oh, sir, a shampooer owes me 10 gold
741. 55:24–55:33pieces. And he got away from us. Hold him, hold him, to the fleeing shampooer. Stop, stop,
742. 55:33–55:38I see you from here. Enter hurriedly a frightened shampooer.
743. 55:38–55:46Oh! Confound this gambling business! Freed from its tether. The ace I might better say.
744. 55:46–55:54Ask, how it kicks me. And the cast of the dice called the spear proves true to its name.
745. 55:54–56:01For it sticks me. The keeper's whole attention was busy with the score. So it took no great
746. 56:01–56:09invention to vanish through the door. But I cannot stand forever. In the unprotected street
747. 56:09–56:15is there no one to deliver. I would fall before his feet. While the keeper and the gambler
748. 56:15–56:20are looking somewhere else for me. I'll just walk backwards into this empty temple and
749. 56:20–56:27turn goddess. He makes all sorts of gestures, takes his place, and waits.
750. 56:27–56:30to Matura and the Gambler.
751. 56:30–56:38Oh, sir, a Shampooer owes me ten gold pieces, and he got away from us.
752. 56:38–56:40Hold him, hold him.
753. 56:40–56:44Stop, stop, I see you from here.
754. 56:44–56:47You may run to hell, if they'll take you in.
755. 56:47–56:52With Indra, the God, you may stay, for there's never a God can save your skin.
756. 56:52–56:55While Matura wants his pay.
757. 56:55–57:02Oh, wither flee you, nimble rambler, you that cheat an honest gambler, you that shake with
758. 57:02–57:09fear and shiver, all a tremble, all a quiver, you that cannot trip enough.
759. 57:09–57:18On the level ground and rough, you that stain your social station, family, and reputation.
760. 57:18–57:23Examining the footprints, here he goes, and here the tracks are lost.
761. 57:23–57:31Gaze is at the footprints. Reflectively. Look! The feet are turned around. And the temple hasn't any image.
762. 57:31–57:39After a moment's thought, that rogue of a shampoor has gone into the temple with his feet turned around.
763. 57:39–57:47Let's follow him. All right, they enter the temple and take a good look, then make signs to each other.
764. 57:47–57:49What, a wooden image?
765. 57:49–57:52Of course not, it's stone.
766. 57:52–57:54He shakes it with all his might.
767. 57:54–57:56Then makes signs.
768. 57:56–57:57What do we care?
769. 57:57–57:59Come, let's have a game.
770. 57:59–58:03He starts to gamble as hard as he can.
771. 58:03–58:07Trying with all his might to repress the gambling fever.
772. 58:07–58:08Aside.
773. 58:08–58:09Oh.
774. 58:09–58:10Oh.
775. 58:10–58:11Oh.
776. 58:11–58:13The rattle of dice is a charming thing.
777. 58:13–58:15When you haven't a copper left,
778. 58:15–58:18It works like a drum on the heart of a king.
779. 58:18–58:20Of all his realm bereft,
780. 58:20–58:24for gamblers leap down a mountain steep I know I shall not play.
781. 58:24–58:28Yet the rattle of dice is as sweet as the peep.
782. 58:28–58:30Of nightingales in May.
783. 58:30–58:33My turn, my turn.
784. 58:33–58:36Not much, it's my turn.
785. 58:36–58:38Coming up quickly from behind.
786. 58:38–58:41Isn't it my turn?
787. 58:41–58:43We've got our man.
788. 58:43–58:49Seizing him. You jailbird, you're caught. Pay me my ten gold pieces.
789. 58:50–58:52I'll pay you this very day.
790. 58:52–58:54Pay me this very minute.
791. 58:55–58:58I'll pay you. Only have mercy.
792. 58:58–59:00Come, will you pay me now?
793. 59:01–59:08My head is getting dizzy. He falls to the ground. The others beat him with all their might.
794. 59:08–59:12They're drawing the gambler's ring. You're bound by the gambler's ring.
795. 59:13–59:27Rises. Despairingly. What? Bound by the gambler's ring. Confound it. That is a limit which we gamblers can't pass. Where can I get the money to pay him?
796. 59:27–59:30Well then, you must give surety.
797. 59:30–59:37I have an idea. He nudges the gambler. I'll give you half, if you'll forgive me the other half.
798. 59:37–59:39Alright.
799. 59:39–59:45To matter a. I'll give you surety for a half. You might forgive me the other half.
800. 59:45–59:48All right, where's the harm?
801. 59:48–59:52Allowed. You forgave me a half, sir?
802. 59:52–59:53Yes.
803. 59:53–59:57To the gambler. And you forgave me a half?
804. 59:57–59:58Yes.
805. 59:58–59:59Then I'll...
806. 1:00:00–1:00:30विचार-विमर्चना, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, क

808. 1:00:39–1:00:47where can I get a father sell your mother and pay where can I get a mother sell
809. 1:00:47–1:00:55yourself and pay have mercy lead me to the King's Highway go ahead if it must
810. 1:00:55–1:00:56Just be.
811. 1:00:56–1:00:58He walks about.
812. 1:00:58–1:01:03Gentlemen, will you buy me for ten gold pieces from this gambling master?
813. 1:01:03–1:01:06He sees a passerby and calls out.
814. 1:01:06–1:01:07What is that?
815. 1:01:07–1:01:10You wish to know what I can do.
816. 1:01:10–1:01:12I will be your house servant.
817. 1:01:12–1:01:13What?
818. 1:01:13–1:01:15He has gone without even answering.
819. 1:01:15–1:01:18Well, here's another.
820. 1:01:18–1:01:19I'll speak to him.
821. 1:01:19–1:01:21He repeats his offer.
822. 1:01:21–1:01:22What?
823. 1:01:22–1:01:30612 takes no notice of me. He is gone. Confound it. I've had hard luck ever since Charodata
824. 1:01:30–1:01:32lost his fortune.
825. 1:01:32–1:01:34Will you pay?
826. 1:01:34–1:01:43How can I pay? He falls down. Mathura drags him about. Good gentleman. Save me. Save me.
827. 1:01:43–1:01:45Enter Dada Raka.
828. 1:01:45–1:01:52Yes. Gambling is a kingdom without a throne. You do not mind defeat at all. Greater the
829. 1:01:52–1:02:00sums you spend and win, while kingly revenues roll in. Rich men, like slaves, before you
830. 1:02:00–1:02:08fall, and again, you earn your coin by gambling, your friends and wife by gambling, your gifts
831. 1:02:08–1:02:14and food by gambling, your last cent goes by gambling, and again, my cash was taken
832. 1:02:14–1:02:21by the tray. The deuce then took my health away. The ace then set me on the street.
833. 1:02:21–1:02:25The four completed my defeat.
834. 1:02:25–1:02:27He looks before him.
835. 1:02:27–1:02:31Here comes Mathura, our sometime gambling master.
836. 1:02:31–1:02:36Well, as I can't escape, I think I'll put on my veil.
837. 1:02:36–1:02:40He makes any number of gestures with his cloak.
838. 1:02:40–1:02:43Then examines it.
839. 1:02:43–1:02:46This cloth is sadly indigent in thread.
840. 1:02:46–1:02:49This lovely cloth lets in a lot of light.
841. 1:02:49–1:02:53This cloth's protective power is nearly fled.
842. 1:02:53–1:02:56This cloth is pretty when it's rolled up tight.
843. 1:02:56–1:03:00Yet after all, what more could a poor saint do?
844. 1:03:00–1:03:02For you see?
845. 1:03:02–1:03:05One foot I've planted in the sky.
846. 1:03:05–1:03:07The other on the ground must lie.
847. 1:03:07–1:03:10The elevation's rather high.
848. 1:03:10–1:03:12But the sun stands it.
849. 1:03:12–1:03:14Why can't I?
850. 1:03:14–1:03:16Pay, pay.
851. 1:03:16–1:03:17How can I pay?
852. 1:03:17–1:03:19Mathura drags him about.
853. 1:03:20–1:03:23Well, well, what is this I see?
854. 1:03:23–1:03:25He addresses a bystander.
855. 1:03:25–1:03:28What did you say, sir?
856. 1:03:28–1:03:32This shampooer is being maltreated by the gambling master.
857. 1:03:32–1:03:34And no one will save him.
858. 1:03:34–1:03:36I'll save him myself.
859. 1:03:36–1:03:40He presses forward, stand back, stand back.
860. 1:03:41–1:03:43He takes a look.
861. 1:03:43–1:03:46Well, if this isn't that swindler, Mathura,
862. 1:03:46–1:03:52And here is the poor saintly shampooer, a saint to be sure.
863. 1:03:52–1:04:02Who does not hang with bended head? Rigid till set of sun. Who does not rub his back with sand? Till boils begin to run.
864. 1:04:02–1:04:13Whose shins dogs may not browse upon? As they pass him in their rambling. Why should this tall and dainty man be so in love with gambling?
865. 1:04:13–1:04:23Well, I must pacify Mathura. He approaches. How do you do? Mathura. Mathura returns the greeting.
866. 1:04:23–1:04:25What does this mean?
867. 1:04:25–1:04:28He owes me ten gold pieces.
868. 1:04:28–1:04:30A mere bagatelle.
869. 1:04:30–1:04:42Pulling the rolled up cloak from under Dar-doraka's arm. Look, gentlemen. Look, the man in the ragged cloak calls ten gold pieces a mere bagatelle.
870. 1:04:42–1:04:44tell.
871. 1:04:44–1:04:50My good fool, don't I risk ten gold pieces on a cast of the dice?
872. 1:04:50–1:04:55Suppose a man has money, is that any reason why he should put it in his bosom and show
873. 1:04:55–1:04:56it?
874. 1:04:56–1:04:59But you, you'll lose your cast.
875. 1:04:59–1:05:00You'll lose your
876. 1:05:00–1:05:30विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्�
877. 1:05:30–1:05:38doesn't win? Then he won't pay you. This is no time for nonsense. If you say that, you
878. 1:05:38–1:05:44can give him the money yourself. My name is Matura. I'm a swindler and I play a crooked
879. 1:05:44–1:05:51game. And I'm not afraid of anybody. You are an immoral scoundrel. Who did you say was
880. 1:05:51–1:05:58immoral? You're immoral. Your father is immoral. He gives the shampooer a sign to
881. 1:05:58–1:06:07escape. You cur, that is just the way that you gamble. That is the way I gamble? Come,
882. 1:06:07–1:06:15Shampooer, pay me my ten gold pieces. I'll pay you this very day. I'll pay it once.
883. 1:06:15–1:06:25Mathura drags him about. Fool, you may maltreat him when I am away, but not before my eyes.
884. 1:06:25–1:06:28Mathura seizes the shampooer and hits him on the nose.
885. 1:06:28–1:06:34The shampooer bleeds, faints, and falls flat.
886. 1:06:34–1:06:38Dada Raka approaches and interferes.
887. 1:06:38–1:06:40Mathura strikes Dada Raka.
888. 1:06:40–1:06:43And Dada Raka strikes back.
889. 1:06:43–1:06:46Oh, oh, you accursed hound.
890. 1:06:46–1:06:49But I'll pay you for this.
891. 1:06:49–1:06:53My good fool, I was walking peaceably along the street.
892. 1:06:53–1:06:59and you struck me. If you strike me tomorrow in court, then you will open your eyes."
893. 1:06:59–1:07:02Yes, I'll open my eyes.
894. 1:07:02–1:07:05How will you open your eyes?
895. 1:07:05–1:07:11Opening his eyes wide. This is the way I'll open my eyes.
896. 1:07:11–1:07:19Dada Raka throws dust in Mathura's eyes and gives the Shampooer a sign to escape.
897. 1:07:19–1:07:26Mathura shuts his eyes and falls down. The Shampua escapes.
898. 1:07:26–1:07:33Aside. I have made an enemy of the influential gambling master Matura. I had better not stay
899. 1:07:33–1:07:40here. Besides, my good friend Shavillika told me that a young herdsman named Ayaka has
900. 1:07:40–1:07:47been designated by a soothsayer as our future king. Now everybody in my condition is running
901. 1:07:47–1:07:53after him. I think I will join myself to him. Exit."
902. 1:07:53–1:07:58Trumbles as he walks away and looks about him. Here is a house where somebody has left the
903. 1:07:58–1:08:04side door open. I will go in. He enters and perceives Vasantasina.
904. 1:08:04–1:08:11Madam, I throw myself upon your protection. He who throws himself upon my protection
905. 1:08:11–1:08:19shall be safe. Close the door, girl. The meat does so. What do you fear?
906. 1:08:19–1:08:25A creditor, madam. You may open the door now, girl."
907. 1:08:25–1:08:32To himself. Ah! Her reasons for not fearing a creditor are in proportion to her innocence.
908. 1:08:32–1:08:37The proverb is right. The man who knows his strength and bears a load, proportioned
909. 1:08:37–1:08:44to that strength. Not more nor less. Is safe from stumbling and from sore distress. Although
910. 1:08:44–1:08:49he wander on a dreary road. That means me.
911. 1:08:49–1:08:56Wiping his eyes to the gambler, pay, pay. While we were quarreling with Dardaraka, sir,
912. 1:08:56–1:09:04the man escaped. I broke that shampooers nose for him with my fist come on. Let's trace
913. 1:09:04–1:09:11him by the blood. They do so. He went into Vasantasina's house, sir. Then that is the
914. 1:09:11–1:09:18end of the gold pieces. Let's go to court and lodge a complaint. The swindler would leave
915. 1:09:18–1:09:26the house and escape. No, we must besiege him and so capture him.
916. 1:09:26–1:09:30Gina gives Madanakar a sign.
917. 1:09:30–1:09:39When are you, sir, or who are you, sir, or who son are you, sir, or what is your business,
918. 1:09:39–1:09:42sir, or what are you afraid of?
919. 1:09:42–1:09:45Listen, madam.
920. 1:09:45–1:09:47My birthplace is Pataliputra.
921. 1:09:47–1:09:51Madam, I am the son of a householder.
922. 1:09:51–1:09:54I practice the trade of a shampooer.
923. 1:09:54–1:09:58which is a very dainty art, sir, which you have mastered.
924. 1:10:00–1:10:30विचार-विमर्शक बाषाक साहित्य, समालोचना, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता, कविता
925. 1:10:30–1:10:35When he gave money away, he did not boast.
926. 1:10:35–1:10:38When he was injured, he forgot it.
927. 1:10:38–1:10:44To cut a long story short, he was so courteous that he regarded his own person as the possession
928. 1:10:44–1:10:50of others and had compassion on all who sought his protection.
929. 1:10:50–1:10:54Who may it be that her dons would jean me with the virtues which he has stolen from
930. 1:10:54–1:10:58the object of my mistress desires?
931. 1:10:58–1:11:03Good, girl, good. I had the same thought in mind.
932. 1:11:03–1:11:06But to continue, sir.
933. 1:11:06–1:11:11Madam, he was so compassionate and so generous that now...
934. 1:11:11–1:11:13His riches have vanished.
935. 1:11:13–1:11:17I didn't say it. How did you guess it, madam?
936. 1:11:17–1:11:22What was there to guess? Virtue and money seldom keep company.
937. 1:11:22–1:11:27In the pools from which men cannot drink there is so much the more water.
938. 1:11:27–1:11:31But sir, what is his name?
939. 1:11:31–1:11:36Madam, who does not know the name of this moon of the whole world?
940. 1:11:36–1:11:38He lives in the merchant's quarter.
941. 1:11:38–1:11:43He whose name is worthy of all honour is named Sharodatta.
942. 1:11:43–1:11:46Joyfully rising from her seat.
943. 1:11:46–1:11:48Sir, this house is your own.
944. 1:11:48–1:11:52Give him a seat, girl, and take this fan.
945. 1:11:52–1:11:57The gentle man is weary. Mother Nika does as she is bid.
946. 1:11:57–1:12:06Aside. What? So much honour because I mentioned Sharidatta's name. Heaven bless you. Sharidatta.
947. 1:12:06–1:12:14You are the only man in the world who really lives. All others merely breathe. He falls at Vasantasena's feet.
948. 1:12:14–1:12:20Enough. Madam. Enough. Pray be seated. Madam.
949. 1:12:20–1:12:26Seating herself. Where is he who is so richly your creditor, sir?
950. 1:12:26–1:12:33The good man's wealth consists in kindly deeds. All other wealth is vain and quickly flies.
951. 1:12:33–1:12:40The man who honors not his neighbor's needs. Does that man know what honor signifies?
952. 1:12:40–1:12:42But to continue.
953. 1:12:42–1:12:48So I became a servant in his employ. And when his wealth was reduced to his virtue,
954. 1:12:48–1:12:55I began to live by gambling, but fate was cruel, and I lost ten gold pieces.
955. 1:12:55–1:12:58I am ruined. I am robbed.
956. 1:12:58–1:13:08There are the gambling master and the gambler. Looking for me. You have heard my story. Madam. The rest is your affair.
957. 1:13:08–1:13:15Mother Nika. The birds fly every wither when the tree is shaken in which they have their nests.
958. 1:13:15–1:13:22Go, girl, and give the gambling master and the gambler this bracelet, and tell them that
959. 1:13:22–1:13:24this gentleman sense it.
960. 1:13:24–1:13:30She removes a bracelet from her arm, and gives it to Madanika.
961. 1:13:30–1:13:35Receiving the bracelet, yes, mistress, she goes out.
962. 1:13:35–1:13:38I am ruined, I am robbed.
963. 1:13:38–1:13:44Inasmuch as these two are looking up to heaven, and sighing, and chattering, and fastening
964. 1:13:44–1:13:51their eyes on the door. I conclude that they must be the gambling master and the gambler.
965. 1:13:51–1:13:56Approaching, I salute you, sir. May happiness be yours.
966. 1:13:56–1:14:05Sir, which of you is the gambling master? O maiden, fair but something less than shy.
967. 1:14:05–1:14:11With red lip wounded in love's ardent play. On whom is bent that sweet? Coqueta shy?
968. 1:14:11–1:14:14For whom that lisp that steals the heart away?
969. 1:14:14–1:14:16I haven't got any money.
970. 1:14:16–1:14:19You'll have to look somewhere else.
971. 1:14:19–1:14:23You are certainly no gambler, if you talk that way.
972. 1:14:23–1:14:26Is there anyone who owes you money?
973. 1:14:26–1:14:27There is.
974. 1:14:27–1:14:30He owes ten gold pieces.
975. 1:14:30–1:14:31What of him?
976. 1:14:31–1:14:34In his behalf my mistress sends you this bracelet.
977. 1:14:34–1:14:39No, no, he sends it himself.
978. 1:14:39–1:14:40Seizing it joyfully.
979. 1:14:40–1:14:46Well, well, you may tell the noble youth that his account is squared.
980. 1:14:46–1:14:49Let him come and seek delight again in gambling.
981. 1:14:49–1:14:52Exe and Matura and the Gambler
982. 1:14:52–1:14:54Returning to Wusentassina.
983. 1:14:54–1:14:59Mistress, the gambling master and the gambler have gone away well-paced.
984. 1:15:00–1:15:04दो, सर, आं कमफोट यो किन्सपोक.
985. 1:15:04–1:15:11आ, मादम, अछिक मेथिली भी आजिक जाड़ा दे प्रक्तिस तर आद और अचिक आद आद आद आद.
986. 1:15:11–1:15:15But sir, he for whose sake you mastered the art?
987. 1:15:15–1:15:17Who first received your service?
988. 1:15:17–1:15:20He should have your service still.
989. 1:15:20–1:15:21Aside.
990. 1:15:21–1:15:24A very pretty way to decline my services.
991. 1:15:24–1:15:27How shall I repay her kindness?
992. 1:15:27–1:15:29Allowed. Madam.
993. 1:15:29–1:15:31Thus dishonored as a gambler.
994. 1:15:31–1:15:34I shall become a Buddhist monk.
995. 1:15:34–1:15:36And so, Madam.
996. 1:15:36–1:15:39Treasure these words in your memory.
997. 1:15:39–1:15:44He was a shampooer. A gambler. A Buddhist monk.
998. 1:15:44–1:15:48Sir, you must not act too precipitately.
999. 1:15:48–1:15:56Madam, my mind is made up. He walks about. I gambled. And in gambling I did fall.
1000. 1:15:56–1:16:06Till everyone beheld me with dismay. Now I shall show my honest face to all. And walk abroad upon the king's highway.
1001. 1:16:06–1:16:10to mulchuous cries behind the scenes.
1002. 1:16:10–1:16:14Listening. What is this? What is this?
1003. 1:16:14–1:16:20Addressing someone behind the scenes. What did you say? Post-breaker.
1004. 1:16:20–1:16:25The Santa Sena's rogue elephant. Is at liberty. Hurrah.
1005. 1:16:25–1:16:30I must go and see the lady's best elephant. No? No.
1006. 1:16:30–1:16:35What have I to do with these things? I must hold to my resolution.
1007. 1:16:35–1:16:37exit
1008. 1:16:37–1:16:44then enter hastily karnapuraka highly delighted wearing a gorgeous mantle
1009. 1:16:44–1:16:48where is she where is my mistress
1010. 1:16:48–1:16:55insolent what can it be that so excites you you do not see your mistress before your very eyes
1011. 1:16:55–1:17:00perceiving vasantasina mistress my service to you
1012. 1:17:00–1:17:05Karnpur ka, your face is beaming. What is it?
1013. 1:17:05–1:17:12Proudly. Oh, Mistress. You missed it. You didn't see Karnapuraka's heroism today.
1014. 1:17:12–1:17:15What? Karnpur ka, what?
1015. 1:17:15–1:17:25Listen, post-breaker. My mistress rogue elephant, broke the stake he was tied to, killed his keeper, and ran into the street.
1016. 1:17:25–1:17:30Making a terrible commotion, you should have heard the people shriek.
1017. 1:17:30–1:17:33Take care of the babies as quick as you can.
1018. 1:17:33–1:17:36And climb up a roof or a tree.
1019. 1:17:36–1:17:39The elephant rogue wants the blood of a man.
1020. 1:17:39–1:17:42Escape, run away, can't you see?
1021. 1:17:42–1:17:46And how they lose their ankle rings.
1022. 1:17:46–1:17:49Girdles, set with gems and things.
1023. 1:17:49–1:17:51Break away from fastenings.
1024. 1:17:51–1:17:54As they stumble, trip, and blunder.
1025. 1:17:54–1:17:57See the bracelets snap asunder.
1026. 1:17:57–1:18:00Icha tangled, pearly wonder.
1027. 1:18:00–1:18:06And that rogue of an elephant dives with his trunk and his feet and his tusks into the city of
1028. 1:18:06–1:18:10Bujaini, as if it were a lotus pond in full flower.
1029. 1:18:10–1:18:13At last he comes upon a Buddhist monk.
1030. 1:18:13–1:18:19And while the man's staff and his water jar and his begging bowl fly every which way,
1031. 1:18:19–1:18:23he drizzles water over him and gets him between his tusks.
1032. 1:18:23–1:18:30The people see him and begin to shriek again, crying, Oh, oh, the monk is killed, quote,
1033. 1:18:30–1:18:36Anxiously, oh, what carelessness, what carelessness.
1034. 1:18:36–1:18:44Don't be frightened, just listen, mistress. Then, with a big piece of the broken chain dangling about him,
1035. 1:18:44–1:18:51he picked him up, picked up the monk between his tusks, and just then Karnapuraka saw him.
1036. 1:18:51–1:18:59I saw him. No. No. The slave who grows fat on my mistress' rice cakes saw him. Stumbled with his
1037. 1:18:59–1:19:05left foot over a gambler's score, grabbed up an iron pole out of a shop, and challenged the mad
1038. 1:19:05–1:19:15elephant. I hit him, in a fit of passion. Too he really looked like some great mountain peak.
1039. 1:19:15–1:19:20And from between those tusks of his eye drew the sacred hermit meek.
1040. 1:19:21–1:19:24Splendid, splendid, but gone.
1041. 1:19:25–1:19:32Then, Mistress, all Ujaiini tip over to one side, like a ship loaded unevenly,
1042. 1:19:32–1:19:39and you could hear nothing but hurrah, hurrah for Karna Puraka. Then, Mistress,
1043. 1:19:39–1:19:42a man touched the places where he ought to have ornaments.
1044. 1:19:42–1:19:49and finding that he hadn't any looked up heaved a long sigh and threw this mantle over me
1045. 1:19:49–1:19:56find out Karnpurka whether the mantle is perfumed with jasmine or not
1046. 1:19:56–1:19:59mistress the elephant perfume is
1047. 1:20:00–1:20:02विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1048. 1:20:02–1:20:04विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1049. 1:20:04–1:20:06विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1050. 1:20:06–1:20:08विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1051. 1:20:08–1:20:10विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1052. 1:20:10–1:20:12विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1053. 1:20:12–1:20:14विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1054. 1:20:14–1:20:16विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1055. 1:20:16–1:20:21The mantel is very becoming to her, Karnpuraka.
1056. 1:20:21–1:20:24Oh, yes, the mantel is becoming enough.
1057. 1:20:24–1:20:29Here is your reward, Karnpuraka. She gives him a gem.
1058. 1:20:29–1:20:35Taking it and bowing low. Now the mantel is most wonderfully becoming.
1059. 1:20:35–1:20:39Karnapuraka, where is Charu Dutta now?
1060. 1:20:39–1:20:43He started to go home along this very street.
1061. 1:20:43–1:20:50this very street. Come, girl, let us go to the upper balcony and see Charuditta, exceint
1062. 1:20:50–1:21:00Omnus. Enter Charudatta's servant, Vada Manaka.
1063. 1:21:00–1:21:07A master, kindly and benevolent, his servants love, however poor he be, the purse proud,
1064. 1:21:07–1:21:14with a will on harshness bent, pays service in the coin of cruelty. And again, a bullock
1065. 1:21:14–1:21:21greedy for a feast of corn. You never can prevent, a wife who wants her lord to wear a horn.
1066. 1:21:21–1:21:27You never can prevent, a man who loves to gamble night and morn. You never can prevent, and
1067. 1:21:27–1:21:33blemishes that with a man are born. You never can prevent, it is some time since Charada
1068. 1:21:33–1:21:39went to the concert. It is past midnight, and still he does not come. I think I
1069. 1:21:39–1:21:45will go into the outer hall and take a nap. He does so.
1070. 1:21:45–1:21:48Enter Charudatta and Maitreya.
1071. 1:21:48–1:21:56How beautifully re-bulsam! The loot is indeed a pearl. A pearl not of the ocean. Gently the
1072. 1:21:56–1:22:03anxious lovers heart befriending. Consoling when true lovers may not meet. To love lawns
1073. 1:22:03–1:22:09soul's the dearest comfort sending. It adds to sweetest love it's more of sweet.
1074. 1:22:10–1:22:12Well then, let's go into the house.
1075. 1:22:13–1:22:16But how wonderfully master Rabhaela sang.
1076. 1:22:17–1:22:23There are just two things that always make me laugh. One is a woman talking Sanskrit,
1077. 1:22:23–1:22:29and the other is a man who tries to sing soft and low. Now when a woman talks Sanskrit,
1078. 1:22:29–1:22:31She is like a heifer with a new rope through her nose.
1079. 1:22:32–1:22:33All you hear is,
1080. 1:22:33–1:22:38Su. Su. Su. And when a man tries to sing soft and low,
1081. 1:22:38–1:22:42he reminds me of an old priest muttering texts.
1082. 1:22:42–1:22:46While the flowers in his chaplet dry up. No, I don't like it.
1083. 1:22:47–1:22:51My friend, Master Rebhila sent most wonderfully this evening.
1084. 1:22:52–1:22:58And still you are not satisfied. The notes of love, peace, sweetness,
1085. 1:22:58–1:23:06Could I trace the note that thrills the note of passion to the note of woman's loveliness
1086. 1:23:06–1:23:15and grace are my poor words add nothing nothing new but as the notes in sweetest cadence rang
1087. 1:23:15–1:23:22I thought it was my hidden love who sang the melody of song the stricken strings in
1088. 1:23:22–1:23:29undertone that half unconscious clings. More clearly sounding when the passions rise. But
1089. 1:23:29–1:23:36ever sweeter as the music dies. Words that strong passion fain would say again. Yet checks
1090. 1:23:36–1:23:44their second utterance, in vain. For music sweet as this lives on. Until, I walk as
1091. 1:23:44–1:23:47hearing sweetest music still.
1092. 1:23:47–1:23:53Let's see, my friend, the very dogs are sound asleep in the shops that look out on the market.
1093. 1:23:53–1:23:56Let us go home, he looks before him.
1094. 1:23:56–1:24:02Look, look, the blessed moon seems to give place to darkness as she descends from her
1095. 1:24:02–1:24:03palace in heaven.
1096. 1:24:03–1:24:09True, the moon gives place to darkness as she dips.
1097. 1:24:09–1:24:15Behind the western mountain, and the tips, of her uplifted horns alone appear.
1098. 1:24:15–1:24:22Take two sharp pointed dusks uplifted here, where bathes an elephant in water's cool.
1099. 1:24:22–1:24:25Who shows not else above the jungle pool?
1100. 1:24:25–1:24:28Well, here's our house.
1101. 1:24:28–1:24:32Vardamanaka, Vardamanaka, open the door.
1102. 1:24:32–1:24:34I hear Matriya's voice.
1103. 1:24:34–1:24:36Charadatta has returned.
1104. 1:24:36–1:24:39I must open the door for him.
1105. 1:24:39–1:24:40He does so.
1106. 1:24:40–1:24:42Master, I salute you.
1107. 1:24:42–1:24:45Matriya, I salute you too.
1108. 1:24:45–1:24:52The couch is ready. Pray be seated. Charadatta and Matriya enter and seat themselves.
1109. 1:24:52–1:24:56Vardhamanaka, call Radhanika to wash our feet.
1110. 1:24:56–1:25:00Compassionately. She sleeps. Do not wake up.
1111. 1:25:00–1:25:01अछि।
1112. 1:25:01–1:25:02अछि।
1113. 1:25:02–1:25:03अछि।
1114. 1:25:03–1:25:04अछि।
1115. 1:25:04–1:25:05अछि।
1116. 1:25:05–1:25:06अछि।
1117. 1:25:06–1:25:07अछि।
1118. 1:25:07–1:25:08अछि।
1119. 1:25:08–1:25:09अछि।
1120. 1:25:09–1:25:10अछि।
1121. 1:25:10–1:25:11अछि।
1122. 1:25:11–1:25:12अछि।
1123. 1:25:12–1:25:13अछि।
1124. 1:25:13–1:25:14अछि।
1125. 1:25:14–1:25:15अछि।
1126. 1:25:15–1:25:16अछि।
1127. 1:25:16–1:25:17अछि।
1128. 1:25:17–1:25:18अछि।
1129. 1:25:18–1:25:19अछि।
1130. 1:25:19–1:25:20अछि।
1131. 1:25:20–1:25:21अछि।
1132. 1:25:21–1:25:22अछि।
1133. 1:25:22–1:25:23अछि।
1134. 1:25:23–1:25:24अछि।
1135. 1:25:24–1:25:28Yes, Matriya, do you bring the water?
1136. 1:25:28–1:25:35Matriya does so, Vardhamanaka washes Charada's feet, then moves away.
1137. 1:25:35–1:25:39Let water be brought for the Brahmin's feet.
1138. 1:25:39–1:25:41What good does water do my feet?
1139. 1:25:41–1:25:45I shall have to roll in the dirt again, like a beaten ass.
1140. 1:25:45–1:25:48Matriya, you are a Brahmin.
1141. 1:25:48–1:25:55Yes, like a slow worm among all the other snakes, so am I a Brahmin among all the other Brahmins.
1142. 1:25:55–1:26:09Matria, I will wash your feet after all. He does so. Matria, this golden casket I was to keep by day. You by night, take it, he gives it to Matria. Then exit.
1143. 1:26:09–1:26:13Receiving the casket, the thing is here still.
1144. 1:26:13–1:26:18Isn't there a single thief in Nujaini to steal the wretch that robs me of my sleep?
1145. 1:26:18–1:26:22Listen, I am going to take it into the inner court.
1146. 1:26:22–1:26:25Such lacks attention we can ill afford.
1147. 1:26:25–1:26:33If we are trusted by a courtesan, then, Brahman, prove yourself an honest man.
1148. 1:26:33–1:26:38And guard it safely, till it be restored.
1149. 1:26:38–1:26:46He nods, repeating the stanza, the melody of song, the stricken strings, page 44.
1150. 1:26:46–1:26:48Are you going to sleep?
1151. 1:26:48–1:26:58Yes, so it seems for conquering sleep. Descending on mine eyes, first smites the brow with unresisted blow.
1152. 1:26:58–1:27:07Unseen, elusive, like old age, she tries to gather strength by weakening her foe.
1153. 1:27:07–1:27:09Then let's go to sleep. He does so.
1154. 1:27:11–1:27:13Enter Shavalaka.
1155. 1:27:14–1:27:17I made an entrance for my body's round.
1156. 1:27:17–1:27:19By force of art and arms.
1157. 1:27:19–1:27:21A path to deeds.
1158. 1:27:21–1:27:24I skinned my sides by crawling on the ground.
1159. 1:27:24–1:27:28Like a snake that sluffs the skin no longer sound.
1160. 1:27:28–1:27:31And now I go where my profession leads.
1161. 1:27:32–1:27:34He gazes at the sky.
1162. 1:27:34–1:27:35Joyfully.
1163. 1:27:35–1:27:40See, the blessed moon is setting. For well I know.
1164. 1:27:40–1:27:48My trade would feign from Watchman's eyes, be shrouded. Valiant. I force the dwelling of another.
1165. 1:27:48–1:27:55But see, the stars in deepest dark are clouded. And the night shields me like a careful mother.
1166. 1:27:55–1:28:03I made a breach in the orchard wall and entered. And now I must force my way into the inner court as well.
1167. 1:28:03–1:28:11Yes. Let men call it vulgar. If they will. The trade that thrives while sleeps the sleepyhead.
1168. 1:28:11–1:28:19Yes. Navery. Not bravery. Call it still. To overreach confiding folk abed.
1169. 1:28:19–1:28:26Far better blame and hissing. Fairly won. Than the pay of genuflecting underlings.
1170. 1:28:26–1:28:30This antique path was trod by Drona's son.
1171. 1:28:30–1:28:32Who slew the sleeping?
1172. 1:28:32–1:28:34Unsuspecting kings.
1173. 1:28:34–1:28:37But where shall I make the breach?
1174. 1:28:37–1:28:40Where is the spot which falling drops decayed?
1175. 1:28:40–1:28:43For each betraying sound is deadened there.
1176. 1:28:43–1:28:47No yawning breach should in the walls be made.
1177. 1:28:47–1:28:50So treatises on robbery declare.
1178. 1:28:50–1:28:52Where does the palace crumble?
1179. 1:28:52–1:28:54Where the place
1180. 1:28:54–1:28:58That nighter eaten bricks full soundness where?
1181. 1:28:58–1:29:01Where shall I, scape the sight of woman's face?
1182. 1:29:01–1:29:05Fulfillment of my wishes waits me there.
1183. 1:29:06–1:29:07He feels the wall.
1184. 1:29:07–1:29:14Here is a spot weakened by constant sun and sprinkling and eaten by salt-peeter rot.
1185. 1:29:14–1:29:17And here is a pile of dirt thrown up by a mouse.
1186. 1:29:17–1:29:19Now heaven be praised.
1187. 1:29:19–1:29:21My venture prospers.
1188. 1:29:21–1:29:25This is the first sign of success for Scander's sons.
1189. 1:29:25–1:29:29Now, first of all, how shall I make the breach?
1190. 1:29:29–1:29:35The Blessed Bearer of the Golden Lance has prescribed four varieties of breach.
1191. 1:29:35–1:29:39Thus, if the bricks are baked, pull them out.
1192. 1:29:39–1:29:42If they are unbaked, cut them.
1193. 1:29:42–1:29:46If they are made of earth, wet them.
1194. 1:29:46–1:29:49If they are made of wood, split them.
1195. 1:29:49–1:29:55here we have baked bricks. ergo. pull out the bricks.
1196. 1:29:55–1:29:59now what shall be the shape I give the breach? a lotus?
1197. 1:30:00–1:30:30विश्सिस्टन, क्रेसण्मून, और, सुन, अब्लूं, और, क्रोस, और, भूल्जिंप्ट, फूर इच्छ, त्रीटिस लिज्पर्मित, विच्वाश्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्च्
1198. 1:30:30–1:30:33And at my less successful ventures too.
1199. 1:30:33–1:30:36The crowd of neighbors gazed by morning light,
1200. 1:30:36–1:30:38Assigning praise or blame.
1201. 1:30:38–1:30:41As was my due.
1202. 1:30:41–1:30:43Praise to the boon conferring God,
1203. 1:30:43–1:30:46To scander of immortal youth.
1204. 1:30:46–1:30:47Praise to Him.
1205. 1:30:47–1:30:50The bearer of the golden lance.
1206. 1:30:50–1:30:51The brahmin's God.
1207. 1:30:51–1:30:53The pious.
1208. 1:30:53–1:30:54Praise to Him.
1209. 1:30:54–1:30:56The child of the sun.
1210. 1:30:56–1:30:57Praise to Him.
1211. 1:30:57–1:30:59The teacher of magic.
1212. 1:30:59–1:31:06whose first pupil I am, for he found pleasure in me and gave me magic ointment,
1213. 1:31:06–1:31:12with which so I anointed be. No watchman's eye my form shall see,
1214. 1:31:12–1:31:19and edged sword that falls on me from cruel wounds shall leave me free."
1215. 1:31:19–1:31:26He anoints himself. Alas! I have forgotten my measuring line, reflecting,
1216. 1:31:26–1:31:31Aha! This sacred cord shall be my measuring line.
1217. 1:31:31–1:31:35Yes, the sacred cord is a great blessing to a Brahmin,
1218. 1:31:35–1:31:38especially to one like me.
1219. 1:31:38–1:31:41For, you see.
1220. 1:31:41–1:31:43With this he measures.
1221. 1:31:43–1:31:45Here he pierces a wall
1222. 1:31:45–1:31:47and picks the lock.
1223. 1:31:47–1:31:49When jewels are at stake,
1224. 1:31:49–1:31:52it serves as key to bolted door and hall
1225. 1:31:52–1:31:56as tourniquet for bite of worm and snake.
1226. 1:31:56–1:32:09The measuring is done. I begin my task. He does so. Then takes a look. My breach lacks but a single brick. Alas! I am bitten by a snake.
1227. 1:32:09–1:32:22He binds his finger with the sacred cord and manifests the workings of poison. I have applied the remedy. And now I am restored. He continues his work.
1228. 1:32:22–1:32:23Then gazes.
1229. 1:32:23–1:32:24Ah!
1230. 1:32:24–1:32:26There burns a candle.
1231. 1:32:26–1:32:27See!
1232. 1:32:27–1:32:31Though jealous darkness hems it round,
1233. 1:32:31–1:32:34the golden yellow candle from its place
1234. 1:32:34–1:32:37shines through the breach upon the ground,
1235. 1:32:37–1:32:42like a streak of gold upon the touchstone's face.
1236. 1:32:42–1:32:45Now I must discover whether these two are feigning sleep,
1237. 1:32:45–1:32:49or whether they are asleep in the fullest meaning of the term.
1238. 1:32:49–1:32:54He tries to terrify them and notes the effect.
1239. 1:32:54–1:32:58Yes, they must be asleep in the fullest meaning of the term.
1240. 1:32:58–1:33:00For see.
1241. 1:33:00–1:33:03Their breath first calmly rises.
1242. 1:33:03–1:33:04Ear it sink.
1243. 1:33:04–1:33:08Its regularity all fear defies.
1244. 1:33:08–1:33:10Unmoving in their socket holes.
1245. 1:33:10–1:33:15The eyes are tightly closed and never seem to wink.
1246. 1:33:15–1:33:17The limbs relaxed.
1247. 1:33:17–1:33:19At ease, the bodies lie.
1248. 1:33:19–1:33:26I see their feet beyond the bedstead peep. The lighted candle vexes, not the eye. It would,
1249. 1:33:26–1:33:36if they were only feigning sleep. He looks about him. What a drum! And here is a flute!
1250. 1:33:36–1:33:45And here a snare drum! And here a lute! And read pipes! And yonder manuscripts!
1251. 1:33:45–1:33:48Is this the house of a dancing master?
1252. 1:33:48–1:33:49But no.
1253. 1:33:49–1:33:51When I entered,
1254. 1:33:51–1:33:54I was convinced that this was a palatial residence.
1255. 1:33:54–1:33:56Now then,
1256. 1:33:56–1:33:59is this man poor in the fullest meaning of the term?
1257. 1:33:59–1:34:00Or,
1258. 1:34:00–1:34:03from fear of the king or of thieves,
1259. 1:34:03–1:34:06does he keep his property buried?
1260. 1:34:06–1:34:07Well,
1261. 1:34:07–1:34:09my own property is buried.
1262. 1:34:09–1:34:10Too.
1263. 1:34:10–1:34:14But I will scatter the seeds that betray subterranean gold.
1264. 1:34:14–1:34:25He does so. The scattered seeds nowhere swell up. Ah, he is poor in the fullest meaning of the term. Good. I go.
1265. 1:34:25–1:34:36Talking in his sleep. Look, man, I see something like a hole in the wall. I see something like a thief. You had better take this golden casket.
1266. 1:34:36–1:35:00I wonder if the man has discovered that I have entered and is showing off his poverty in order to make fun of me. Shall I kill him? Or is the poor devil talking in his sleep? He takes a look. But see, this thing wrapped in a ragged bath clout. Now that I inspect it by the light of my candle, is in truth a jewel casket.
1267. 1:35:00–1:35:09Suppose I take it. But no. It is hardly proper to rob a man of good birth. Who is as poor as I am? I go.
1268. 1:35:09–1:35:16My friend, by the wishes of cows and brahmens, I conjure you to take this golden casket.
1269. 1:35:16–1:35:26One may not disregard the sacred wish of a cow and the wish of a brahmin. I will take it. But look. There burns the candle.
1270. 1:35:26–1:35:33I keep about me a moth for the express purpose of extinguishing candles. I will let him enter the flame.
1271. 1:35:33–1:35:38This is his place and hour. May this moth, which I hear release,
1272. 1:35:38–1:35:42depart to flutter above the flame in varying circles.
1273. 1:35:42–1:35:47The breeze from the insect's wings has translated the flame into a cursed darkness.
1274. 1:35:47–1:35:53Or shall I not rather curse the darkness brought by me upon my Brahmanic family?
1275. 1:35:53–1:35:59For my father was a man who knew the four Vedas, who would not accept a gift.
1276. 1:35:59–1:36:04And I, Shavilaka, his son, and a Brahmin?
1277. 1:36:04–1:36:09I am committing a crime for the sake of that courtesan girl Madanaka.
1278. 1:36:09–1:36:11Now I will grant the Brahmin's wish.
1279. 1:36:11–1:36:14He reaches out for the casket.
1280. 1:36:14–1:36:18How cold your fingers are, man!
1281. 1:36:18–1:36:19What carelessness!
1282. 1:36:19–1:36:23My fingers are cold from touching water.
1283. 1:36:23–1:36:26Well, I will put my hand in my armpit.
1284. 1:36:26–1:36:30He warms his left hand and takes the casket.
1285. 1:36:30–1:36:32Have you got it?
1286. 1:36:32–1:36:36I could not refuse Abramon's request, I have it.
1287. 1:36:36–1:36:42Now I shall sleep as peacefully as a merchant who has sold his wares.
1288. 1:36:42–1:36:45Oh, great, Bramon! Sleep a hundred years.
1289. 1:36:45–1:36:51Alas, that a Brahmin family should thus be plunged in darkness for the sake of Medanaka,
1290. 1:36:51–1:36:52a courtesan.
1291. 1:36:52–1:36:53Or better?
1292. 1:36:53–1:36:57I myself am thus plunged in darkness.
1293. 1:36:57–1:36:59A curse on poverty.
1294. 1:36:59–1:37:00I say,
1295. 1:37:00–1:37:03T is stranger to the manly will.
1296. 1:37:03–1:37:05This act that shuns the light of day.
1297. 1:37:05–1:37:07I curse indeed.
1298. 1:37:07–1:37:09But do it still.
1299. 1:37:09–1:37:10Well then,
1300. 1:37:10–1:37:14I must go to Vasanticina's house to buy Medanaka's freedom.
1301. 1:37:14–1:37:17He walks about and looks around him.
1302. 1:37:17–1:37:18Ah!
1303. 1:37:18–1:37:21I think I hear footsteps.
1304. 1:37:21–1:37:23I hope they are not those of policemen.
1305. 1:37:23–1:37:25Never mind.
1306. 1:37:25–1:37:27I will pretend to be a pillar.
1307. 1:37:27–1:37:28And wait.
1308. 1:37:28–1:37:30But after all,
1309. 1:37:30–1:37:32do policemen exist for me?
1310. 1:37:32–1:37:34For Shavalaka?
1311. 1:37:34–1:37:35Why?
1312. 1:37:35–1:37:37I am a cat for crawling.
1313. 1:37:37–1:37:39And a deer for flight.
1314. 1:37:39–1:37:41A hawk for rending.
1315. 1:37:41–1:37:43And a dog for sight.
1316. 1:37:43–1:37:50to judge the strength of men that wake or sleep. A snake, when tea is advisable to creep,
1317. 1:37:50–1:37:57illusions self to seem a saint or rogue, goddess of speech in understanding, brogue,
1318. 1:37:57–1:38:04a light in blackest night, in holes a lizard I can be, a horse on terror, firmer,
1319. 1:38:04–1:38:11and a ship upon the sea. And again, quick as a snake, and steady as a hill,
1320. 1:38:11–1:38:19In flight the Prince of Birds can show no greater skill. In searching on the ground I am as keen as any hare.
1321. 1:38:19–1:38:24In strength I am a lion. And a wolf to rend and tear.
1322. 1:38:24–1:38:37Entering. Dear me. Vardamannakha went to sleep in the outer court. And now he is not there. Well, I will call my treyor. She walks about.
1323. 1:38:37–1:38:41prepares to strike down Radanika, but first takes a look.
1324. 1:38:41–1:38:45What? A woman? Good. I go.
1325. 1:38:45–1:38:46Exit.
1326. 1:38:46–1:38:48Recoiling in terror.
1327. 1:38:48–1:38:54Oh, oh, a thief has cut a hole in the wall of our house and is escaping.
1328. 1:38:54–1:38:57I must go and wake my Traya.
1329. 1:38:57–1:38:59She approaches my Traya.
1330. 1:38:59–1:39:03Oh, my Traya. Get up. Get up.
1331. 1:39:03–1:39:08A thief has cut a hole in the wall of our house and has escaped.
1332. 1:39:08–1:39:15Rising. What do you mean, Wench? A hole in the wall has cut a thief and has escaped.
1333. 1:39:15–1:39:20Poor fool. Stop your joking. Don't you see it?
1334. 1:39:20–1:39:28What do you mean, Wench? It looks as if a second door had been thrown open. Get up, friend Charadotta. Get up!
1335. 1:39:28–1:39:32A thief has made a hole in the wall of our house and has escaped.
1336. 1:39:32–1:39:37Yes, yes, a truce to your jests.
1337. 1:39:37–1:39:40But it isn't a jest look.
1338. 1:39:40–1:39:41Where?
1339. 1:39:41–1:39:43Why, here.
1340. 1:39:43–1:39:49Gazing, what a very remarkable hole. The bricks are drawn away below.
1341. 1:39:49–1:39:57Above, the top is narrow, but the centre-wide, as if the Great House heart had burst with pride.
1342. 1:39:57–1:40:00fearing less the unworthy ship
1343. 1:40:00–1:40:02विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1344. 1:40:02–1:40:04विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1345. 1:40:04–1:40:06विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1346. 1:40:06–1:40:08विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1347. 1:40:08–1:40:10विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1348. 1:40:10–1:40:12विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1349. 1:40:12–1:40:14विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1350. 1:40:14–1:40:16विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
1351. 1:40:16–1:40:20For what man here in Ujjaini does not know how much wealth there is in our house?
1352. 1:40:21–1:40:28Stranger he must have been who made the breach. His customs harvest in my house to reap.
1353. 1:40:28–1:40:35He has not learned that vanished riches teach. A calm, untroubled sleep, he saw the
1354. 1:40:35–1:40:42sometime greatness of my home. And forced in entrance, for his heart did leap. With short
1355. 1:40:42–1:40:50lived hope, now he must elsewhere roam. And overbroken hopes must solly weep. Just think
1356. 1:40:50–1:40:56of the poor fellow telling his friends, I entered the house of a merchant's son. And
1357. 1:40:56–1:40:58found, nothing.
1358. 1:40:58–1:41:04Do you mean to say that you pity the rascally robber? Thinks he, here's a great house.
1359. 1:41:04–1:41:10Here's the place to carry off a jewel casket or a gold casket. He remembers the casket,
1360. 1:41:10–1:41:14Respondently, aside, where is that golden casket?
1361. 1:41:14–1:41:17He remembers the events of the night.
1362. 1:41:17–1:41:22Allowed, look, man, you are always saying, Matria is a fool.
1363. 1:41:22–1:41:27Matria is no scholar, but I certainly acted wisely in handing over that golden casket to
1364. 1:41:27–1:41:28you.
1365. 1:41:28–1:41:32If I hadn't, the son of a slave would have carried it off.
1366. 1:41:32–1:41:36A truce to your jests.
1367. 1:41:36–1:41:39Just because I may fool, do you suppose I don't even know the place and time
1368. 1:41:39–1:41:42for a jest?
1369. 1:41:42–1:41:44But when did this happen?
1370. 1:41:44–1:41:48Why, when I told you that your fingers were cold.
1371. 1:41:48–1:41:49It might have been.
1372. 1:41:49–1:41:51He searches about.
1373. 1:41:51–1:41:56Joyfully, my friend, I have something pleasant to tell you.
1374. 1:41:56–1:41:59What, wasn't it stolen?
1375. 1:41:59–1:42:01Yes.
1376. 1:42:01–1:42:04What is the pleasant news, then?
1377. 1:42:04–1:42:08The fact that he did not go away disappointed.
1378. 1:42:08–1:42:11But it was only entrusted to our care.
1379. 1:42:11–1:42:12What?
1380. 1:42:12–1:42:14Intrusted to our care?
1381. 1:42:14–1:42:16He swoones.
1382. 1:42:16–1:42:17Come to yourself.
1383. 1:42:17–1:42:22Man, is the fact that a thief Stolwa was entrusted to you.
1384. 1:42:22–1:42:24Any reason why you should swoon?
1385. 1:42:24–1:42:26Coming to himself.
1386. 1:42:26–1:42:31Ah, my friend, who will believe the truth?
1387. 1:42:31–1:42:32Suspicion now is sure.
1388. 1:42:32–1:42:34This world will show no wrath.
1389. 1:42:34–1:42:36To the inglorious poor.
1390. 1:42:36–1:42:44Alas, if envious fate before has wooed my wealth alone, why should she seek my store of virtue
1391. 1:42:44–1:42:46as her own?
1392. 1:42:46–1:42:4725.
1393. 1:42:47–1:42:49I intend to deny the whole thing.
1394. 1:42:49–1:42:51Who gave anybody anything?
1395. 1:42:51–1:42:54Who received anything from anybody?
1396. 1:42:54–1:42:56Who was a witness?
1397. 1:42:56–1:42:58And shall I tell a falsehood now?
1398. 1:42:58–1:43:04No, I will beg until I earn the wearer dhal my debt to pay.
1399. 1:43:04–1:43:09In noble falsehood I will spun. That steals the character away.
1400. 1:43:10–1:43:16I will go and tell his good wife. She goes out, returning with Sherudita's wife.
1401. 1:43:17–1:43:23Anxiously. Oh, is it true that my lord is uninjured, and may Treyor too?
1402. 1:43:24–1:43:30It is true, mistress. But the gems which belong to the court of Xan have been stolen.
1403. 1:43:30–1:43:37Sherudita's wife swoonz. Oh my good mistress. Come to yourself.
1404. 1:43:37–1:43:46Recovering. Girl. How can you say that my lord is uninjured? Better that he were injured in body than in character.
1405. 1:43:46–1:43:53For now the people of Ujaiini will say that my lord committed this crime because of his poverty.
1406. 1:43:53–1:43:55She looks up and sighs.
1407. 1:43:55–1:43:56Ah!
1408. 1:43:56–1:43:58Mighty fate!
1409. 1:43:58–1:44:00The destinies of the poor!
1410. 1:44:00–1:44:04Uncertain as the water drops which fall upon a lotus leaf.
1411. 1:44:04–1:44:07Seen to thee, but play things.
1412. 1:44:07–1:44:10There remains to me this one necklace,
1413. 1:44:10–1:44:13Which I brought with me from my mother's house.
1414. 1:44:13–1:44:16But my lord would be too proud to accept it.
1415. 1:44:16–1:44:17Girl!
1416. 1:44:17–1:44:20Call Maitreya Hither.
1417. 1:44:20–1:44:21Yes!
1418. 1:44:21–1:44:22Mistress!
1419. 1:44:22–1:44:28She approaches Maitreya. Maitreya, my lady summons you.
1420. 1:44:28–1:44:30Where is she?
1421. 1:44:30–1:44:32Here. Come.
1422. 1:44:32–1:44:35Approaching. Heaven bless you.
1423. 1:44:35–1:44:40I salute you, sir. Sir, will you look straight in front of you?
1424. 1:44:40–1:44:45Madam, here stands a man who looks straight in front of him.
1425. 1:44:45–1:44:48Sir, you must accept this.
1426. 1:44:48–1:44:50Why?
1427. 1:44:50–1:44:56I have observed the ceremony of the gems, and on this occasion one must make as great a present as
1428. 1:44:56–1:44:59one made to a Brahmin.
1429. 1:44:59–1:45:00This I have not seen.
1430. 1:45:00–1:45:30तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ तुछ �
1431. 1:45:30–1:45:34Here I am, take that, he displays the necklace.
1432. 1:45:34–1:45:36What is this?
1433. 1:45:36–1:45:40Why, that is the reward you get for marrying such a wife.
1434. 1:45:40–1:45:44What? My wife takes pity on me?
1435. 1:45:44–1:45:50Alas, now am I poor indeed. When fate so robs him of his all,
1436. 1:45:50–1:45:56that on her pity he must fall. The man to woman's state doth fall.
1437. 1:45:56–1:46:04The woman is the man. But no, I am not poor, for I have a wife whose love outlasts my wealthy day.
1438. 1:46:04–1:46:12Indi a friend through good and ill. And truth that not could take away. Ah, this the poor man
1439. 1:46:12–1:46:19lacketh still. My Tria, take the necklace and go to Vasantasena. Tell her in my name that we
1440. 1:46:19–1:46:26have gambled away the golden casket, forgetting that it was not our own, that we trust she
1441. 1:46:26–1:46:30will accept this necklace in its place.
1442. 1:46:30–1:46:33But you must not give away this necklace.
1443. 1:46:33–1:46:35The pride of the Four Seas.
1444. 1:46:35–1:46:40For that cheap thing that was stolen before we had a bite or a drink out of it.
1445. 1:46:40–1:46:42Not so, my friend.
1446. 1:46:42–1:46:46She showed her trust in leaving us her treasure.
1447. 1:46:46–1:46:49The price of confidence has no less measure.
1448. 1:46:49–1:46:53Friend, I conjure you by this gesture.
1449. 1:46:53–1:46:57Not to return until you have delivered it into her hands.
1450. 1:46:57–1:47:02Vrdhamanka, do you speedily fill up the opening with the self-same bricks?
1451. 1:47:02–1:47:05Thus will I thwart the process of the law.
1452. 1:47:05–1:47:09For the blemish of so great a scandal sticks.
1453. 1:47:09–1:47:15And, friend Maitreya, you must show your pride by not speaking too despondently.
1454. 1:47:15–1:47:19How can a poor man help speaking despondently?
1455. 1:47:19–1:47:26Poor I am not, my friend, for I have a wife whose love outlasts my wealthy day.
1456. 1:47:26–1:47:31In thee a friend through good and ill. And truth that not could take away.
1457. 1:47:31–1:47:35Ah, this the poor man lacketh still.
1458. 1:47:35–1:47:42Go then, and after performing rites of purification, I will offer my morning prayer.
1459. 1:47:42–1:47:50Excient Omnus. Enter a maid.
1460. 1:47:50–1:47:57I am entrusted with a message for my mistress by her mother. Here is my mistress. She is
1461. 1:47:57–1:48:04gazing at a picture and is talking with Madanika. I will go to her. She walks about. Then
1462. 1:48:04–1:48:09enter Vasantasena as described. And Madanika.
1463. 1:48:09–1:48:13Madhanika girl, is this portrait really like Charu Dutta?
1464. 1:48:14–1:48:15Very like.
1465. 1:48:16–1:48:17How do you know?
1466. 1:48:17–1:48:21Because my mistress eyes are fastened so lovingly upon it.
1467. 1:48:22–1:48:27Madhanika girl, do you say this because Kautasan courtesy demands it?
1468. 1:48:28–1:48:35But mistress, is the courtesy of a girl who lives in a Kautasan's house, necessarily false.
1469. 1:48:35–1:48:43Girl, potterzans meet so many kinds of men that they do learn a false courtesy.
1470. 1:48:43–1:48:49But when the eyes of my mistress find such delight in a thing, and her heart too, what
1471. 1:48:49–1:48:52need is there to ask the reason?
1472. 1:48:52–1:48:56But I should not like to have my friends laugh at me.
1473. 1:48:56–1:48:59You need not be afraid.
1474. 1:48:59–1:49:01Women understand women.
1475. 1:49:01–1:49:07Approaching, Mistress, your mother sends word that a covered cut is waiting at the side
1476. 1:49:07–1:49:11door, and that you were to take a drive.
1477. 1:49:11–1:49:15Tell me, is it Charu Ditta who invites me?
1478. 1:49:15–1:49:22Mistress, the man who sent ornaments worth ten thousand gold pieces with the card.
1479. 1:49:22–1:49:24Is who?
1480. 1:49:24–1:49:28Is the king's brother-in-law, Sans Thanaka.
1481. 1:49:28–1:49:34indignity, go, and never come again on such an errand.
1482. 1:49:34–1:49:40Do not be angry, mistress. I was only sent with the message.
1483. 1:49:40–1:49:44But it is the message which makes me angry.
1484. 1:49:44–1:49:46But what shall I tell your mother?
1485. 1:49:46–1:49:53Tell my mother never to send me another such message, unless she wishes to kill me.
1486. 1:49:53–1:49:58As you will, exit. Less than enter Charvilaka.
1487. 1:50:00–1:50:04अछि।
1488. 1:50:04–1:50:08अछि।
1489. 1:50:08–1:50:12अछि।
1490. 1:50:12–1:50:16अछि।
1491. 1:50:16–1:50:20अछि।
1492. 1:50:20–1:50:24अछि।
1493. 1:50:24–1:50:28अछि।
1494. 1:50:28–1:50:32It was for Medanica's sake that I did the deed of sin.
1495. 1:50:32–1:50:36I paid no heed to anyone who talked with serving men.
1496. 1:50:36–1:50:39The houses ruled by women, folk.
1497. 1:50:39–1:50:41These I avoided most.
1498. 1:50:41–1:50:47And when policemen seemed to have me almost in their ken, I stood stock still and acted
1499. 1:50:47–1:50:52just exactly like a post a hundred such manoeuvres did I constantly.
1500. 1:50:52–1:50:58essay. And by such means succeeded in turning night today.
1501. 1:50:58–1:51:00He walks about.
1502. 1:51:00–1:51:06Girl, leave this picture on my sofa and come back at once with a fan.
1503. 1:51:06–1:51:11Yes, mistress, exit with the picture.
1504. 1:51:11–1:51:19This is Vasanthesena's house. I will enter. He does so. I wonder where I can find Madanaka.
1505. 1:51:19–1:51:21Madanaka with the fan.
1506. 1:51:21–1:51:24Shavalaka discovers her.
1507. 1:51:24–1:51:25Ah!
1508. 1:51:25–1:51:27It is Madanaka.
1509. 1:51:27–1:51:30Surpassing Madana himself in charm.
1510. 1:51:30–1:51:33She seems the bride of love.
1511. 1:51:33–1:51:35Inhuman guys.
1512. 1:51:35–1:51:38Even while my heart the flames of passion harm.
1513. 1:51:38–1:51:41She brings a sandal coolness to my eyes.
1514. 1:51:41–1:51:43Madanaka.
1515. 1:51:43–1:51:45Discover Shravilga.
1516. 1:51:45–1:51:47Oh, oh, oh, Shravilga.
1517. 1:51:47–1:51:52I am so glad, Sharvelka. Where have you been?
1518. 1:51:52–1:51:57I will tell you. They gaze at each other passionately.
1519. 1:51:57–1:52:06How Mother Nika lingers. I wonder where she is. She looks through a bull's eye window. Why? There she stands.
1520. 1:52:06–1:52:13Talking with a man. Her loving glance does not waver. And she gazes as if she would drink him in.
1521. 1:52:13–1:52:17I imagine he must be the man who wishes to make her free.
1522. 1:52:17–1:52:26Well, let her stay. Let her stay. Never interrupt anybody's happiness. I will not call her.
1523. 1:52:26–1:52:35Tell me, Sharvilka. Sharvilaka looks about him uneasily. What is it, Sharvilka? You seem uneasy.
1524. 1:52:35–1:52:39I will tell you a secret. Are we alone?
1525. 1:52:39–1:52:41Of course we are.
1526. 1:52:41–1:52:45What? A deep secret? I will not listen.
1527. 1:52:45–1:52:51Tell me, Medanaka. Will Vasanticina take a price for your freedom?
1528. 1:52:51–1:52:58The conversation has to do with me. Then I will hide behind this window and listen.
1529. 1:52:58–1:53:07I asked my mistress about it. Sharvilaka. And she said that if she could have her way, she would free all her servants for nothing.
1530. 1:53:07–1:53:13But, Sharvilaka, where did you find such a fortune that you can think of buying my freedom
1531. 1:53:13–1:53:16from my mistress?
1532. 1:53:16–1:53:19A victim to my poor perplight.
1533. 1:53:19–1:53:21And your sweet love to win.
1534. 1:53:21–1:53:28For you, my timid maid, last night, I did the deed of sin.
1535. 1:53:28–1:53:29His face is tranquil.
1536. 1:53:29–1:53:32It would be troubled, if he had sinned.
1537. 1:53:32–1:53:40Oh, Sherwilka, for a mere nothing, for a woman, you have risked both things.
1538. 1:53:40–1:53:41What things?
1539. 1:53:41–1:53:45Your life and your character.
1540. 1:53:45–1:53:49My foolish girl, fortune favours the brave.
1541. 1:53:49–1:53:54Oh, Sherwilka, your character was without a stain.
1542. 1:53:54–1:53:56You didn't do anything very bad.
1543. 1:53:56–1:53:57Did you?
1544. 1:53:57–1:54:01When for my sake you did the deed of sin?
1545. 1:54:01–1:54:04The gems that magnify a woman's charm.
1546. 1:54:04–1:54:06As flowers the creeping plant.
1547. 1:54:06–1:54:08I do not harm.
1548. 1:54:08–1:54:11I do not rob the Brahmin of his pelf.
1549. 1:54:11–1:54:14Nor seize the sacrificial gold myself.
1550. 1:54:14–1:54:18I do not steal the baby from the nurse.
1551. 1:54:18–1:54:21Simply because I need to fill my purse.
1552. 1:54:21–1:54:22Even as a thief.
1553. 1:54:22–1:54:25I strive with mane and might.
1554. 1:54:25–1:54:29For just distinction, twix the wrong and right.
1555. 1:54:29–1:54:32And so you may tell Vasan to see neither this.
1556. 1:54:32–1:54:35These ornaments were made for you to don.
1557. 1:54:35–1:54:37Or so it seems to me.
1558. 1:54:37–1:54:43But as you love me, never put them on where other folks may see.
1559. 1:54:43–1:54:49But Sharvelaka, ornaments that nobody may see, and the quarters and the two things do
1560. 1:54:49–1:54:51not hang together.
1561. 1:54:51–1:54:52Give me the jewels.
1562. 1:54:52–1:54:55I want to see them.
1563. 1:54:55–1:54:56Here they are.
1564. 1:54:56–1:54:59He gives them to her with some uneasiness.
1565. 1:55:00–1:55:04अछि।
1566. 1:55:04–1:55:08अछि।
1567. 1:55:08–1:55:12विश्ट बाषान्त शारइड़ाता
1568. 1:55:12–1:55:16विश्ट अछि।
1569. 1:55:16–1:55:20विश्ट अछि।
1570. 1:55:20–1:55:25This morning I heard in the merchant's quarter that the merchant chari-data
1571. 1:55:26–1:55:29Basantacena and Medanica swoon
1572. 1:55:30–1:55:38Medanica! Come to yourself! Why is it that now your figure seems to melt in limp despair?
1573. 1:55:38–1:55:49Your eyes are wildly rolling here and there? That when I come? Sweet girl! To make you free! You fall to trembling! Not to pitying me!
1574. 1:55:50–1:55:56Coming to herself. Oh, you reckless man. When you did with you what not to have done for my sake.
1575. 1:55:56–1:56:00You didn't kill anybody or hurt anybody in that house?
1576. 1:56:01–1:56:02Medanaka.
1577. 1:56:03–1:56:07Shavalaka does not strike a terrified man or a man asleep.
1578. 1:56:07–1:56:10I did not kill anybody nor hurt anybody.
1579. 1:56:11–1:56:12Really?
1580. 1:56:12–1:56:13Really?
1581. 1:56:14–1:56:18Recovering consciousness. Ah, I breathe again.
1582. 1:56:18–1:56:20Thank heaven
1583. 1:56:20–1:56:22Jealousy
1584. 1:56:22–1:56:24What does this, thank heaven, mean?
1585. 1:56:24–1:56:26Medanica
1586. 1:56:26–1:56:28I sinned for you
1587. 1:56:28–1:56:30When love had made me pine
1588. 1:56:30–1:56:32Although my house was good since time began
1589. 1:56:32–1:56:34Love took my virtue
1590. 1:56:34–1:56:36But my pride is mine
1591. 1:56:36–1:56:38You call me friend and love another man
1592. 1:56:40–1:56:42Meaningly
1593. 1:56:42–1:56:44A noble youth is like a goodly tree
1594. 1:56:44–1:56:46His wealth
1595. 1:56:46–1:56:51His wealth, the fruit so fair, the courtesan is like a bird.
1596. 1:56:51–1:56:55For she pecks him and leaves him bare.
1597. 1:56:55–1:56:59Love is a fire. Whose flame is lust?
1598. 1:56:59–1:57:04Whose fuel is gallantry? Where in our youth and riches must
1599. 1:57:04–1:57:06Thus sacrificed be.
1600. 1:57:06–1:57:11With a smile, his excitement is a little out of place.
1601. 1:57:11–1:57:20Yes. Those men are fools. It seems to me, who trust to women or to gold? For golden girls,
1602. 1:57:20–1:57:28tis plain to see, are false as virgin snakes and cold. Love not a woman. If you ever do,
1603. 1:57:28–1:57:35she mocks at you and plays the gay deceiver. Yet if she loves you, you may love her
1604. 1:57:35–1:57:42too. But if she doesn't leave her, too true it is that a courtesan will laugh and cry for
1605. 1:57:42–1:57:50gold. She trusts you not, but waits your trustful hour. If virtue and a name are yours, then
1606. 1:57:50–1:57:56hold. Avoid her as you would a graveyard flower. And again? As fickle as the billows
1607. 1:57:56–1:58:03of the sea, glowing no longer than the evening sky. A woman takes your gold, then leaves
1608. 1:58:03–1:58:12you free. You're worthless. Like cosmetics? When you're dry. Yes. Women are indeed fickle.
1609. 1:58:12–1:58:19One man perhaps may hold her heart in trust. She lures another with kiketish eyes. Sports
1610. 1:58:19–1:58:27with another in unseemly lust. Another yet her body satisfies. As someone has well said,
1611. 1:58:27–1:58:30On mountain tops no lotuses are grown.
1612. 1:58:30–1:58:34The horses' yoke, no arse will ever bear.
1613. 1:58:34–1:58:37Rice never springs from seeds of barley sown.
1614. 1:58:37–1:58:40A courtesan is not an honest fair.
1615. 1:58:40–1:58:42A cursed chariodata.
1616. 1:58:42–1:58:44You shall not live.
1617. 1:58:44–1:58:46He takes a few steps.
1618. 1:58:46–1:58:49Seizing the heme of his garment.
1619. 1:58:49–1:58:54O you foolish man, your anger is so ridiculous.
1620. 1:58:54–1:58:55Ridiculous.
1621. 1:58:55–1:58:57How so?
1622. 1:58:57–1:59:01Because these jewels belong to my mistress.
1623. 1:59:01–1:59:02And what then?
1624. 1:59:02–1:59:06And she left them with that gentle man.
1625. 1:59:06–1:59:07What for?
1626. 1:59:07–1:59:08Whispers.
1627. 1:59:08–1:59:10That's why.
1628. 1:59:10–1:59:12Sheepishly.
1629. 1:59:12–1:59:13Confound it.
1630. 1:59:13–1:59:16The sun was hot one summer day.
1631. 1:59:16–1:59:18I sought the shadow.
1632. 1:59:18–1:59:19There to stay.
1633. 1:59:19–1:59:20Poor fool.
1634. 1:59:20–1:59:22The kindly branch to pay.
1635. 1:59:22–1:59:25I stole it sheltering leaves away.
1636. 1:59:25–1:59:31How sorry he seems surely, he did this thing in ignorance.
1637. 1:59:31–1:59:33What is to be done now?
1638. 1:59:33–1:59:34Madanaka.
1639. 1:59:34–1:59:38Your own wit should tell you that.
1640. 1:59:38–1:59:39No.
1641. 1:59:39–1:59:43For you must remember, nature herself gives women wit.
1642. 1:59:43–1:59:46Men learn from books a little bit.
1643. 1:59:46–1:59:53Sharvilka, if you will take my advice, restore the jewels to that righteous man.
1644. 1:59:53–1:59:57Medanaka? What if he should prosecute me?
1645. 1:59:57–1:59:59No cruel heat comes from the moon.
1646. 2:00:00–2:00:03Good, Madhanika, Good
1647. 2:00:03–2:00:09Madhanika, for what I did, I feel no grief nor fear.
1648. 2:00:09–2:00:12Why tell me of this good man's virtues, hi?
1649. 2:00:12–2:00:15Shame for my baseness touches me more near.
1650. 2:00:15–2:00:19What can this king do to such rogues as I?
1651. 2:00:19–2:00:24Nevertheless, your suggestion is inconsistent with prudence.
1652. 2:00:24–2:00:27You must discover some other plan.
1653. 2:00:27–2:00:32Yes, there is another plan. I wonder what it will be.
1654. 2:00:32–2:00:39Pretend to be a servant of that gentle man, and give the jewels to my mistress.
1655. 2:00:39–2:00:41And what then?
1656. 2:00:41–2:00:49Then you are no thief, Charo-dictor has discharged his obligation, and my mistress has her jewels.
1657. 2:00:49–2:00:52But isn't this course too reckless?
1658. 2:00:52–2:00:57I tell you, give them to her. Any other course is too reckless.
1659. 2:00:57–2:01:03Good, Madhu Nika, good. Spoken like a free woman.
1660. 2:01:03–2:01:08Risen at last is wisdom's light. Because I followed after you,
1661. 2:01:08–2:01:14when clouds obscure the moon by night. Tis hard to find a guide so true.
1662. 2:01:14–2:01:18Then you must wait here a moment in Karma's shrine,
1663. 2:01:18–2:01:21While I tell my mistress that you have come.
1664. 2:01:22–2:01:23I will.
1665. 2:01:24–2:01:30Approaches Vasantasina, mistress, Ibrahman has come from Charodatta to see you.
1666. 2:01:30–2:01:35But girl, how do you know that he comes from Charodatta?
1667. 2:01:35–2:01:38Should I not know my own, mistress?
1668. 2:01:39–2:01:41Shaking her head and smiling.
1669. 2:01:41–2:01:46Aside, splendid, allowed, bid him enter.
1670. 2:01:46–2:01:52Yes, Mistress. Approaching Sharvelka. Enter, Sharvelka.
1671. 2:01:52–2:01:57Approaches. With some embarrassment. My greetings to you.
1672. 2:01:58–2:02:02I salute you, sir. Pray be seated.
1673. 2:02:02–2:02:11The merchant sends this message. My house is so old that it is hard to keep this casket safe. Pray take it back.
1674. 2:02:11–2:02:15He gives it to Madanaka and starts to leave.
1675. 2:02:15–2:02:19Sir, will you undertake a return commission of mine?
1676. 2:02:19–2:02:25Aside. Who will carry it? Allowed. And this commission is...
1677. 2:02:25–2:02:29You will be good enough to accept Madanika.
1678. 2:02:29–2:02:33Madam, I do not quite understand.
1679. 2:02:33–2:02:35But I do.
1680. 2:02:35–2:02:36How so?
1681. 2:02:36–2:02:42Charu Dittal told me that I was to give Madanika to the man who should return these jewels.
1682. 2:02:42–2:02:48You are therefore to understand that he makes you a present of her."
1683. 2:02:48–2:02:49Aside.
1684. 2:02:49–2:02:50Ah.
1685. 2:02:50–2:02:52She sees through me.
1686. 2:02:52–2:02:53Allowed.
1687. 2:02:53–2:02:54Good.
1688. 2:02:54–2:02:55Charidata.
1689. 2:02:55–2:02:56Good.
1690. 2:02:56–2:03:00On virtue only set your heart's desire.
1691. 2:03:00–2:03:03The righteous poor attain to heights where to.
1692. 2:03:03–2:03:06The wicked wealthy never may aspire.
1693. 2:03:06–2:03:07And again?
1694. 2:03:07–2:03:10On virtue let the human heart be set.
1695. 2:03:10–2:03:13To virtue, nothing serves as check or let.
1696. 2:03:13–2:03:21The moon, attaining unattainable, is led by virtue to her seat on Shiva's head.
1697. 2:03:21–2:03:23Is my driver there?
1698. 2:03:23–2:03:26Enter a servant with a bullock cart.
1699. 2:03:26–2:03:28Mistress, the cart is ready.
1700. 2:03:28–2:03:33Madhanika girl, you must show me a happy face.
1701. 2:03:33–2:03:34You are free.
1702. 2:03:34–2:03:36Enter the bullock cart.
1703. 2:03:36–2:03:38But do not forget me.
1704. 2:03:38–2:03:44Viping, my mistress drives me away. She falls at her feet.
1705. 2:03:44–2:03:52You are now the one to whom honor should be paid. Go then, enter the cart. But do not forget me.
1706. 2:03:52–2:03:59Heaven bless you. And you, Medanica. Turn upon her a happy face.
1707. 2:03:59–2:04:08and hail with bended head the grace. That gives you now the name of wife. As a veil to keep you safe through life."
1708. 2:04:08–2:04:13He enters the bullet cart with Medanaka and starts away.
1709. 2:04:13–2:04:18Men. Men. We have the following orders from the chief of police.
1710. 2:04:18–2:04:24A soothsayer has declared that a young herdsman named Ariaka is to become king,
1711. 2:04:24–2:04:29trusting to this prophecy and alarmed thereyat.
1712. 2:04:29–2:04:32King Palakka has taken him from his hamlet
1713. 2:04:32–2:04:35and thrown him into strict confinement.
1714. 2:04:35–2:04:37Therefore be watchful
1715. 2:04:37–2:04:40and every man at his post.
1716. 2:04:40–2:04:43Listening. What?
1717. 2:04:43–2:04:46King Palakka has imprisoned my good friend Ariyaka?
1718. 2:04:46–2:04:48And here I am.
1719. 2:04:48–2:04:50A married man.
1720. 2:04:50–2:04:51Confound it.
1721. 2:04:51–2:04:52But no.
1722. 2:04:52–2:04:54Two things alone.
1723. 2:04:54–2:05:00His friend? His wife deserve man's love below. A hundred brides may
1724. 2:05:00–2:05:30विश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्वाविश्�
1725. 2:05:30–2:05:32Bring my wife thither.
1726. 2:05:32–2:05:36Yes, sir. Madanaka, if you desire it, dear.
1727. 2:05:36–2:05:40But dear, you must be very careful. Exit.
1728. 2:05:40–2:05:44Now is for me. I'll rouse my kin.
1729. 2:05:44–2:05:49The kitchen cabinet. Those high in fame by strength of good right arm.
1730. 2:05:49–2:05:53And those who would the king's contempt have met.
1731. 2:05:53–2:05:57And royal slaves. To save my friend from harm.
1732. 2:05:57–2:05:59Like old Yagandarayana.
1733. 2:06:00–2:06:02For the good King Udayana.
1734. 2:06:02–2:06:03And again?
1735. 2:06:03–2:06:06My friend has causeless been confined
1736. 2:06:06–2:06:09by wicked foes of timid kind.
1737. 2:06:09–2:06:10I fly.
1738. 2:06:10–2:06:12I fly to free him soon.
1739. 2:06:13–2:06:15Like the eclipse-oppressed moon.
1740. 2:06:15–2:06:16Exit.
1741. 2:06:17–2:06:18Entering.
1742. 2:06:18–2:06:19Mistress.
1743. 2:06:19–2:06:21I congratulate you.
1744. 2:06:21–2:06:24A brahman has come with a message from Charudatta.
1745. 2:06:24–2:06:33Ah, this is a joyful day. Show him every mark of respect. Go, and have him conducted hither
1746. 2:06:33–2:06:35by one of the pages.
1747. 2:06:35–2:06:40Yes, Mistress. Exit.
1748. 2:06:40–2:06:43Enter Maytraya with a page.
1749. 2:06:43–2:06:50Well, Ravana, the king of the demons, travels with his chariot that they call the Blossom.
1750. 2:06:50–2:06:52He earned it by his penances.
1751. 2:06:52–2:06:54Now I am a Brahmin.
1752. 2:06:54–2:06:59And though I never performed any penances, I travel with another sort of a blossom, a
1753. 2:06:59–2:07:01woman of the town.
1754. 2:07:01–2:07:06Sir, will you inspect our gateway?
1755. 2:07:06–2:07:07Gaze is admiringly.
1756. 2:07:07–2:07:12It has just been sprinkled and cleaned and received a coat of green.
1757. 2:07:12–2:07:16The threshold of it is pretty as a picture with the offerings of all sorts of fragrant
1758. 2:07:16–2:07:17flowers.
1759. 2:07:17–2:07:21It stretches up its head as if it wanted to peep into the sky.
1760. 2:07:21–2:07:26It is adorned with strings of jasmine garlands that hang down and toss about like the trunk
1761. 2:07:26–2:07:28of the heavenly elephant.
1762. 2:07:28–2:07:31It shines with its high ivory portal.
1763. 2:07:31–2:07:36It is lovely with any number of holiday banners that gleam red as great rubies and wave
1764. 2:07:36–2:07:37there.
1765. 2:07:37–2:07:42Coquettish fingers as they flutter in the breeze and seem to invite me to enter.
1766. 2:07:42–2:07:46Both sides are decorated with holiday water jars of crystal, which are charming with
1767. 2:07:46–2:07:51their bright green mango twigs, and are set at the foot of the pillars that sustain the
1768. 2:07:51–2:07:57portal. The doors are of gold. Thickly set with diamonds as hard to pierce as a giant's
1769. 2:07:57–2:08:04breast it actually wearies a poor devil's. Envy, yes, Visantasina's house door is a
1770. 2:08:04–2:08:09beautiful thing. Really, it forcibly challenges the attention of a man who doesn't care
1771. 2:08:09–2:08:11about such things.
1772. 2:08:11–2:08:16Come, sir, and enter the first cord.
1773. 2:08:16–2:08:18Enter's and looks about.
1774. 2:08:18–2:08:23Well, here in the first cord are rows of balconies brilliant as the moon.
1775. 2:08:23–2:08:29Or as seashells, or as lotus stalks, whitened by handfuls of powder strewn over them, gleaming
1776. 2:08:29–2:08:33with golden stairways inlaid with all sorts of gems.
1777. 2:08:33–2:08:37They seem to gaze down on Ujai-ini with their round faces.
1778. 2:08:37–2:08:41The crystal windows, from which strings of pearls are dangling.
1779. 2:08:41–2:08:45The porter sits there and snoozes as comfortably as a professor.
1780. 2:08:45–2:08:50The crows which they tempt with rice gruel and curdled milk will not eat the offering.
1781. 2:08:50–2:08:53Because they can't distinguish it from the mortar.
1782. 2:08:53–2:08:55Show me the way, madam.
1783. 2:08:55–2:09:00Come, sir, and enter the second court.
1784. 2:09:00–2:09:02Enter's and looks about.
1785. 2:09:02–2:09:05Well, here in the second court the cart-bullocks are tied.
1786. 2:09:05–2:09:10They grow fat on mouthfuls of grass and pulse-stocks which are brought them.
1787. 2:09:10–2:09:14and left, by everybody, their horns are smeared with oil.
1788. 2:09:14–2:09:19And here is another, a buffalo, snorting like a gentleman insulted.
1789. 2:09:19–2:09:22And here is a ram having his neck rubbed.
1790. 2:09:22–2:09:24Like a prize fighter after the fight.
1791. 2:09:24–2:09:28And here are others, horses having their mains put in shape.
1792. 2:09:28–2:09:30And here in a stall is another.
1793. 2:09:30–2:09:33A monkey, tied fast like a thief.
1794. 2:09:33–2:09:35He looks in another direction.
1795. 2:09:35–2:09:37And here is an elephant.
1796. 2:09:37–2:09:41Taking from his drivers a cake of rice and drippings and oil.
1797. 2:09:41–2:09:43Show me the way, madam.
1798. 2:09:43–2:09:48Come, sir, and enter the third court.
1799. 2:09:48–2:09:49Enter's and looks about.
1800. 2:09:49–2:09:53Well, here in the third court are these seats.
1801. 2:09:53–2:09:55Prepared for young gentlemen to sit on.
1802. 2:09:55–2:09:58A half-red book is lying on the gaming table.
1803. 2:09:58–2:10:00the table itself has its own
1804. 2:10:00–2:10:04नाटक विचार-विमर्शक रेकॉर्डिंग आछि।
1805. 2:10:04–2:10:08नाटक विमर्शक रेकॉर्डिंग आछि।
1806. 2:10:08–2:10:12नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
1807. 2:10:12–2:10:16नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
1808. 2:10:16–2:10:20नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
1809. 2:10:20–2:10:24नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
1810. 2:10:24–2:10:28नाटक विमर्शक रेक।
1811. 2:10:28–2:10:33The symbols are falling, as the stars fall from heaven when their merit is exhausted.
1812. 2:10:33–2:10:38The pipe is discoursing music as sweet as the humming of bees.
1813. 2:10:38–2:10:43And here, again, is a lute that somebody is holding on his lap like a girl who is excited
1814. 2:10:43–2:10:45by jealousy and love.
1815. 2:10:45–2:10:48And he is stroking it with his fingers.
1816. 2:10:48–2:10:54And here, again, are courtesan girls that sing as charmingly as honey-drunken bees.
1817. 2:10:54–2:10:58And they are made to dance and recite a drama with love in it.
1818. 2:10:58–2:11:02And water coolers are hanging in the windows so as to catch the breeze.
1819. 2:11:02–2:11:05Show me the way, madam.
1820. 2:11:05–2:11:09Come, sir, and enter the fifth court.
1821. 2:11:09–2:11:11Enter's and looks about.
1822. 2:11:11–2:11:16Well, here in the fifth court the overpowering smell of asafetida and oil is attractive
1823. 2:11:16–2:11:19enough to make a poor devil's mouth water.
1824. 2:11:19–2:11:22The kitchen is kept hot all the time.
1825. 2:11:22–2:11:24And the gusts of steam.
1826. 2:11:24–2:11:30with all sorts of good smells. Seem like sighs issuing from its mouth like doors. The smell of
1827. 2:11:30–2:11:37the preparation of all kinds of foods and sauces makes me smack my lips. And here, again, is a
1828. 2:11:37–2:11:43butcher's boy washing a mess of chitterlings as if it were an old loincloth. The cook is preparing
1829. 2:11:43–2:11:49every kind of food. Sweet meats are being constructed, cakes are being baked, to himself.
1830. 2:11:49–2:11:54I wonder if I am to get a chance to wash my feet in an invitation to eat what I can hold.
1831. 2:11:54–2:12:02He looks in another direction. There are courtesans and bastard pages adorned with any number of jewels,
1832. 2:12:02–2:12:09just like gondar vieis and obserises. Really, this house is heaven. Tell me, who are you bastards anyway?
1833. 2:12:10–2:12:17Why? We are bastard pages, petted in a stranger's court. Fed on stranger's food,
1834. 2:12:17–2:12:21Stranger's money makes our sport not so very good.
1835. 2:12:21–2:12:25Stranger women gave us birth. Stranger men begot.
1836. 2:12:25–2:12:28Baby elephants in mirth. We're a bastard lot.
1837. 2:12:29–2:12:31Show me the way, madam.
1838. 2:12:32–2:12:35Come, sir, and enter the sixth court.
1839. 2:12:36–2:12:41Enter's and looks about. Well, here in the sixth court they are working in golden jewels.
1840. 2:12:42–2:12:46The arches set with sapphires look as if they were the home of the rainbow.
1841. 2:12:46–2:12:54The jewelers are testing the lapis lazuli, the pearls, the corals, the topaz, the sapphires,
1842. 2:12:54–2:13:01the cat's eyes, the rubies, the emeralds, and all the other kinds of gems rubies are being
1843. 2:13:01–2:13:07set in gold. Golden ornaments are being fashioned. Pearls are being strung on a red cord. Pieces
1844. 2:13:07–2:13:13of lapis lazuli are being cleverly polished. Shells are being pierced. Corals are being
1845. 2:13:13–2:13:19ground, wet bundles of saffron are being dried. Musk is being moistened, sandalwood is being
1846. 2:13:19–2:13:25ground to make sandal water. Perfumes are being compounded, beetle leaves and camphor are being
1847. 2:13:25–2:13:32given to courtesans and their lovers. Coquettish glances are being exchanged. Laughter is going on,
1848. 2:13:32–2:13:38wine is being drunk incessantly with sounds of glee. Here are men servants, here are maid
1849. 2:13:38–2:13:44servants, and here are men who forget child and wife and money. When the courtesans, who
1850. 2:13:44–2:13:49have drunk the wine from the liquor jars, give them the midden, they, drink, show me the
1851. 2:13:49–2:13:51way, madam.
1852. 2:13:51–2:13:56Come, sir, and enter the seventh court.
1853. 2:13:56–2:14:01Enter's and looks about. Well, here in the seventh court the mated doves are sitting
1854. 2:14:01–2:14:07comfortably in their snug dove coats. Billing and cooing and nothing else. And perfectly
1855. 2:14:07–2:14:12happy, and there is a parrot in a cage, chanting like a Brahmin with a bellyful of curdled
1856. 2:14:12–2:14:14milk and rice.
1857. 2:14:14–2:14:20And here, again, is a talking thrush, chattering like a housemaid who spreads herself because
1858. 2:14:20–2:14:22somebody noticed her.
1859. 2:14:22–2:14:27A cuckoo, her throat still happy from tasting all sorts of fruit syrups.
1860. 2:14:27–2:14:29Is cooing like a procurus?
1861. 2:14:29–2:14:32Rose of cages are hanging from pegs.
1862. 2:14:32–2:14:34Quails are being egged on to fight.
1863. 2:14:34–2:14:36Partridges are being made to talk.
1864. 2:14:36–2:14:41pigeons are being provoked. A tame peacock that looks as if he was adorned with all sorts
1865. 2:14:41–2:14:47of gems is dancing happily about. And as he flaps his wings, he seems to be fanning the
1866. 2:14:47–2:14:53roof which is distressed by the rays of the sun. He looks in another direction. Here
1867. 2:14:53–2:14:58are pairs of flamingos like moonbeams rolled into a ball that wander about after pretty
1868. 2:14:58–2:15:00girls. As
1869. 2:15:00–2:15:30विचार-विमर्शक नाटक विचार-विमर्शक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक ना
1870. 2:15:30–2:15:36totologous ornaments. Who wanders about, stumbling and stretching his limbs?
1871. 2:15:36–2:15:40Sir, this is my mistress brother.
1872. 2:15:40–2:15:47What sort of ascetic exercises does a man have to perform, in order to be born as Vasantacina's brother?
1873. 2:15:47–2:15:55But no, he may be shiny, may be greasy, and perfumed may he be. And yet I warn you to go easy.
1874. 2:15:55–2:15:58He's a graveyard champak tree.
1875. 2:15:58–2:16:10He looks in another direction. But madam, who is that in the expansive garment? Sitting on the throne. She has shoes on her greasy feet.
1876. 2:16:10–2:16:14Sir, that is my mistress mother.
1877. 2:16:14–2:16:25Lord, what an extensive belly the dirty old witch has got. I suppose they couldn't put that superb portal on the house till after they had brought the idol in?
1878. 2:16:25–2:16:33Rascal, you must not make fun of our mother so. She is pining away under a quartan ague.
1879. 2:16:33–2:16:42Bursts out laughing. O thou blessed quartan ague. Look thou upon a brahmin. Even upon me, with this thy favour.
1880. 2:16:42–2:16:45Rascal, may death strike you.
1881. 2:16:45–2:16:51Bursts out laughing. Why? Wench. A potbelly like that is better dead.
1882. 2:16:51–2:16:58Drinking brandy, rum, and wine, mother fell extremely ill, if mother now should peek in pine.
1883. 2:16:58–2:17:06A jackal pack would have its fill. Well, I have seen Vasantasina's palace with its many incidents and its eight courts.
1884. 2:17:06–2:17:11And really, it seems as if I had seen the triple heaven in a nutshell.
1885. 2:17:11–2:17:20I haven't the eloquence to praise it. Is this the house of a courtesan? Or a piece of Cuba's palace? Where's your mistress?
1886. 2:17:20–2:17:24She is here in the orchard. Enter, sir.
1887. 2:17:25–2:17:31Enter's and looks about. Well, what a beautiful orchard. There are any number of trees planted here,
1888. 2:17:31–2:17:38and they are covered with the most wonderful flowers. Silken swings are hung under the thick set trees.
1889. 2:17:38–2:17:44Just big enough for a girl to sit in. The golden jasmine, the chefelika, the white jasmine,
1890. 2:17:44–2:17:51the jesamin, the navamalaka, the amaranth, the spring creeper, and all the other flowers have fallen
1891. 2:17:51–2:17:58of themselves. And really, it makes Indra's heaven look dingy. He looks in another direction.
1892. 2:17:58–2:18:03And the pond here looks like the morning twilight. For the lilies and red lotuses are as splendid
1893. 2:18:03–2:18:10as the rising sun. And again, the Ashoka tree, whose twigs so merry, and crimson flowers have
1894. 2:18:10–2:18:17just appeared. Seems like a battling mercenary. With clotting crimson gore besmeared. Good!
1895. 2:18:17–2:18:26Now where's your mistress? If you would stop stargazing, sir, you would see her. Perceives
1896. 2:18:26–2:18:35Visantasina and approaches. Heaven bless you. Speaking in Sanskrit. Ah, Maitreya. Rising.
1897. 2:18:35–2:18:40You are very welcome. Here is a seat. Pray be seated.
1898. 2:18:40–2:18:44When you are seated, madam, they both seat themselves.
1899. 2:18:44–2:18:47Is the merchant's son well?
1900. 2:18:47–2:18:49Well, madam.
1901. 2:18:49–2:18:56Tell me, good my trayor, do friends, like birds, yet seek a shelter free.
1902. 2:18:56–2:19:02Beneath the modest boughs of this fair tree, whose leaves are virtues, confidence its
1903. 2:19:02–2:19:06Its blossoms on her, good its precious fruit.
1904. 2:19:06–2:19:10Aside, a good description by a naughty woman.
1905. 2:19:10–2:19:12Aloud, they do, indeed.
1906. 2:19:12–2:19:16Tell me, what is the purpose of your coming?
1907. 2:19:16–2:19:22Listen, madam, the excellent charidata folds his hands and requests.
1908. 2:19:22–2:19:25Folding her hands, and commands.
1909. 2:19:25–2:19:30He says he imagined that that golden casket was his own and gambled it away.
1910. 2:19:30–2:19:36and nobody knows where the gambling master has gone, for he is employed in the king's business.
1911. 2:19:36–2:19:43Mistress, I congratulate you. The gentleman has turned gambler.
1912. 2:19:43–2:19:53Aside, it was stolen by a thief, and he is so proud that he says he gambled it away. I love him for that.
1913. 2:19:53–2:19:59He requests that you will therefore be good enough to accept in its place this necklace of pearls.
1914. 2:20:00–2:20:06Aside, shall I show him the jewels? Reflecting, no, not yet.
1915. 2:20:06–2:20:09Why don't you take this necklace?
1916. 2:20:09–2:20:14Laughs and looks at her friend. Why should I not take the necklace?
1917. 2:20:14–2:20:23My Trier, she takes it and lays it away. Aside, how is it possible that drops of honey fall from the mango tree?
1918. 2:20:23–2:20:26Even after its blossoms are gone?
1919. 2:20:26–2:20:27Allowed!
1920. 2:20:27–2:20:34Sir, pray tell the worthy gambler Charu Dutta in my name that I shall pay him a visit this evening.
1921. 2:20:34–2:20:36Aside!
1922. 2:20:36–2:20:39What else does she expect to get out of a visit to our house?
1923. 2:20:39–2:20:46Allowed! Madam, I will tell him, aside, to have nothing more to do with this courtesan.
1924. 2:20:46–2:20:47Exit!
1925. 2:20:47–2:20:50Take these jewels, girl.
1926. 2:20:50–2:20:53Let us go and bring cheer to Charodatta.
1927. 2:20:53–2:20:59But Mistress, see, an untimely storm is gathering.
1928. 2:20:59–2:21:03The clouds may come, the rain may fall forever.
1929. 2:21:03–2:21:06The night may blacken in the sky above.
1930. 2:21:06–2:21:08For this I care not.
1931. 2:21:08–2:21:10No, I will not waver.
1932. 2:21:10–2:21:13My heart is journeying to him I love.
1933. 2:21:13–2:21:16Take the necklace, girl, and come quickly.
1934. 2:21:16–2:21:18Exceeant Omnis.
1935. 2:21:18–2:21:26The love-lawn Charodata appears, seated.
1936. 2:21:26–2:21:34Looks up, an untimely storm is gathering. For see, the peacocks gaze and lift their fans on high.
1937. 2:21:34–2:21:41The swans forget their purpose to depart. The untimely storm afflicts the blackened sky.
1938. 2:21:41–2:21:48And the wistful lovers' heart. And again, the wet bull's belly wears no deeper dye.
1939. 2:21:48–2:21:57in flashing lightning's golden mantle clad. While cranes, his buglers, make the heaven glad,
1940. 2:21:57–2:22:05the cloud, a second Vishnu, mounts the sky, and yet again, as dark as Vishnu's form,
1941. 2:22:05–2:22:12with circling cranes, to trumpet him, instead of bugle strains, and garments in lightning's
1942. 2:22:12–2:22:20silk and robe, approaches now the harbinger of rains. When lightning's lamp is lit, the
1943. 2:22:20–2:22:26silver river, impetuous falls from out the cloudy womb, like severed lace from heaven
1944. 2:22:26–2:22:34cloaking bloom. It gleams an instant, then is gone forever, like shoaling fishes, or
1945. 2:22:34–2:22:42like dolphins shy, or like to swans, toward heaven's vault that fly. Like paired flamingos,
1946. 2:22:42–2:22:49then made together, like mighty pinnacles that tower on high. In thousand forms the tumbling
1947. 2:22:49–2:22:57clouds embrace. Though torn by winds, they gather, interlace, and paint the ample canvas
1948. 2:22:57–2:23:05of the sky. The sky is black as Drita Rastra's face, proud as the champion of Kuru's race.
1949. 2:23:05–2:23:09The Hottie Peacock shrills his joy abroad.
1950. 2:23:09–2:23:15The cuckoo, in Yudhishtira's sad case, is forced to wander if he would not die.
1951. 2:23:15–2:23:19The swans must leave their forest homes and fly.
1952. 2:23:19–2:23:25Like Pandu's sons, to seek an unknown place.
1953. 2:23:25–2:23:26Reflecting.
1954. 2:23:26–2:23:31It is long since Maitreya went to visit Vasanthasena.
1955. 2:23:31–2:23:34And even yet he does not come.
1956. 2:23:34–2:23:36Dr. Matreya
1957. 2:23:36–2:23:39Can found the courtesan's avarice and her incivility.
1958. 2:23:39–2:23:42To think of her making so short a story of it.
1959. 2:23:42–2:23:46Over and over she repeats something about the affection she feels.
1960. 2:23:46–2:23:50And then without more ado she pockets the necklace.
1961. 2:23:50–2:23:53She is rich enough so that she might at least have said,
1962. 2:23:53–2:23:59Good matreya, rest a little, you must not go until you have had a cup to drink.
1963. 2:23:59–2:24:00Can found the courtesan.
1964. 2:24:00–2:24:04I hope I LL never set eyes on her again.
1965. 2:24:04–2:24:10Wearily, the proverb is right, it is hard to find a lotus plant without a root, a merchant
1966. 2:24:10–2:24:16who never cheats, a goldsmith who never steals, a village gathering without a fight, and
1967. 2:24:16–2:24:18a courtesan without avarice.
1968. 2:24:18–2:24:24Well, I LL find my friend and persuade him to have nothing more to do with this courtesan.
1969. 2:24:24–2:24:27He walks about until he discovers Charodata.
1970. 2:24:27–2:24:37Ah, my good friend is sitting in the orchard. I, LL go to him. Approaching, Heaven bless you. May happiness be yours.
1971. 2:24:37–2:24:46Looking up, ah, my friend Maitreya has returned. You are very welcome, my friend. Pray be seated.
1972. 2:24:46–2:24:47Thank you.
1973. 2:24:47–2:24:51Tell me of your errand, my friend.
1974. 2:24:51–2:24:53My errand went all wrong.
1975. 2:24:53–2:24:57What? Did she not accept the necklace?
1976. 2:24:57–2:25:00How could we expect such a piece of love?
1977. 2:25:00–2:25:30विचार-विमर्शक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक न
1978. 2:25:30–2:25:35have a second grievance. She tipped her friend the wink, covered her face with the hem of
1979. 2:25:35–2:25:41her dress, and laughed at me, and so, braum and though I am, I hereby fall on my face
1980. 2:25:41–2:25:46before you and beg you not to have anything more to do with this courtesan. That sort
1981. 2:25:46–2:25:52of society does any amount of damage. A courtesan is like a pebble in your shoe. It hurts
1982. 2:25:52–2:25:58before you get rid of it. And one thing more, my friend, a courtesan, an elephant,
1983. 2:25:58–2:26:05A scribe, a mendicant friar, a swindler, and an ass wear these dwell, not even rogues are
1984. 2:26:05–2:26:06born.
1985. 2:26:06–2:26:11Oh, my friend, a truce to all your detraction.
1986. 2:26:11–2:26:14My poverty of itself prevents me.
1987. 2:26:14–2:26:19For consider, the horse would gladly hasten here and there.
1988. 2:26:19–2:26:21But his legs fail him.
1989. 2:26:21–2:26:26For his breath departs, so men's vain wishes wander everywhere.
1990. 2:26:26–2:26:34Then, weary grown, return into their hearts, then too, my friend, if wealth is thine, the
1991. 2:26:34–2:26:39maid is thine, for maids are won by gold.
1992. 2:26:39–2:26:48Aside, and not by virtue cold, allowed, but wealth is now no longer mine, and her I may
1993. 2:26:48–2:26:50not hold.
1994. 2:26:50–2:26:56down, aside, from the way he looks up in size. I conclude that my effort to distract him
1995. 2:26:56–2:27:02has simply increased his longing. The proverb is right, you can't reason with a lover.
1996. 2:27:02–2:27:08Allowed. Well, she told me to tell you that she would have to come here this evening.
1997. 2:27:08–2:27:11I suppose she isn't satisfied with the necklace and is coming to look for something
1998. 2:27:11–2:27:12else.
1999. 2:27:12–2:27:20Let her come, my friend. She shall not depart unsatisfied. Enter kumbhilka.
2000. 2:27:20–2:27:32Listen! Good people! The more it rains in sheets, the more my skin gets wet, the more the cold wind beats, the more I shake and fret.
2001. 2:27:32–2:27:35He bursts out laughing.
2002. 2:27:35–2:27:39I make the sweet flute speak from seven holes.
2003. 2:27:39–2:27:43I make the loud flute speak on seven strings.
2004. 2:27:43–2:27:47In singing, I essay the donkey's rolls.
2005. 2:27:47–2:27:50No god can match my music when he sings.
2006. 2:27:50–2:27:54My mistress, Vasantasina, said to me,
2007. 2:27:54–2:27:58kumbhalaka, go and tell Sharudatta that I am coming.
2008. 2:27:58–2:28:03So here I am, on my way to Sharudatta's house.
2009. 2:28:03–2:28:07He walks about and as he enters
2010. 2:28:07–2:28:09discovers Charodata
2011. 2:28:09–2:28:14Here is Charodata in the orchard and here is that wretched jack-o'-napes
2012. 2:28:15–2:28:18To well, I'll go up to them. What?
2013. 2:28:19–2:28:24The orchard gate is shut. Good. I'll give this jack-o'-napes a hint
2014. 2:28:24–2:28:26He throws lumps of mud
2015. 2:28:27–2:28:32Well, who is this pelting me with mud as if I were an apple tree inside of a fence?
2016. 2:28:33–2:28:38Doubtless the pigeons that play on the roof of the garden house.
2017. 2:28:38–2:28:45Wait a minute, you confounded pigeon. With this stick I'll bring you down from the roof to the ground.
2018. 2:28:45–2:28:50Like an overripe mango, he raises his stick and starts to run.
2019. 2:28:50–2:28:57Holding him back by the sacred cord. Sit down, my friend, what do you mean?
2020. 2:28:57–2:29:01Leave the poor pigeon alone with his mate.
2021. 2:29:01–2:29:10What? He sees the pigeon and doesn't see me. Good. I'll hit him again with another lump of mud. He does so.
2022. 2:29:10–2:29:22Looks about him. What? Cumbulaka? I'll be with you in a minute. He approaches and opens the gate. Well, Cumbulaka, come in. I'm glad to see you.
2023. 2:29:22–2:29:25Enters. I salute you, sir.
2024. 2:29:25–2:29:30Where do you come from, man, in this rain and darkness?
2025. 2:29:30–2:29:32You see, she's here.
2026. 2:29:32–2:29:35Who's she? Who's here?
2027. 2:29:35–2:29:38She. See, she.
2028. 2:29:38–2:29:40Look here, you son of a slave.
2029. 2:29:40–2:29:44What makes you sigh like a half-starved old beggar in a famine?
2030. 2:29:44–2:29:46With your, she, she, she.
2031. 2:29:46–2:29:51And what makes you hoot like an owl with your, who, who, who?
2032. 2:29:51–2:29:53All right, tell me.
2033. 2:29:53–2:29:56Aside, suppose I say it this way.
2034. 2:29:56–2:29:59Allowed, I'll give you a riddle, man.
2035. 2:29:59–2:30:00It's
2036. 2:30:00–2:30:30नाटक आछिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव आजिव
2037. 2:30:30–2:30:34You fool, in spring, in wasanta.
2038. 2:30:34–2:30:39Returns to kumbolaka. You fool, in spring, in vasanta.
2039. 2:30:39–2:30:44Now I ll give you another. Who guards thriving villages?
2040. 2:30:44–2:30:46Why, the guard?
2041. 2:30:46–2:30:49Laughing, wrong.
2042. 2:30:49–2:30:58Well, I'm stuck, reflecting. Good. I'll ask charodata again. He returns and puts the question to charodata.
2043. 2:30:58–2:31:02The army, my friend, the sena
2044. 2:31:02–2:31:07Comes back to Kumbulaka, the army, you jackass, the sena
2045. 2:31:07–2:31:11Now put the two together and say, M fast
2046. 2:31:11–2:31:13Sena vasanta
2047. 2:31:13–2:31:16Say it turned around
2048. 2:31:16–2:31:19Turns around, sena vasanta
2049. 2:31:19–2:31:24You fool, you jacka-napes, turn the parts of the thing around
2050. 2:31:24–2:31:28turns his feet around, Sena Vasanta.
2051. 2:31:28–2:31:32You fool! Turn the parts of the word around.
2052. 2:31:32–2:31:35After reflection, Vasanta Sena.
2053. 2:31:35–2:31:37She's here.
2054. 2:31:37–2:31:39Then I must tell Charada.
2055. 2:31:39–2:31:44Approaching, well, Charada, your creditor is here.
2056. 2:31:44–2:31:48How should a creditor come into my family?
2057. 2:31:48–2:31:51Not in the family perhaps, but at the door.
2058. 2:31:51–2:31:53Vasanta Sena is here.
2059. 2:31:53–2:31:56Why do you deceive me, my friend?
2060. 2:31:56–2:32:00If you can't trust me, then ask Kumbulaka here.
2061. 2:32:00–2:32:03Kumbulaka, you jackass, come here.
2062. 2:32:04–2:32:07Approaching. I salute you, sir.
2063. 2:32:07–2:32:13You are welcome, my good fellow. Tell me, is Wusanta Sina really here?
2064. 2:32:13–2:32:18Yes, she's here. Wusanta Sina is here.
2065. 2:32:18–2:32:25Joyfully, my good fellow, I have never let the bearer of welcome news go unrewarded.
2066. 2:32:25–2:32:30Take this as your recompense. He gives him his mantle.
2067. 2:32:30–2:32:36Take it and boughs. Gleefully, I'll tell my mistress.
2068. 2:32:36–2:32:38Exit.
2069. 2:32:38–2:32:41Do you see why she comes in a storm like this?
2070. 2:32:41–2:32:45I do not quite understand, my friend.
2071. 2:32:45–2:32:52I know, she has an idea that the pearl necklace is cheap, and the golden casket expensive.
2072. 2:32:52–2:32:56She isn't satisfied, and she has come to look for something more.
2073. 2:32:56–2:33:02Aside, she shall not depart unsatisfied.
2074. 2:33:02–2:33:07Then enter the love-lawn vasanticina in a splendid garment.
2075. 2:33:07–2:33:14Fit for a woman who goes to meet her lover, a maid with an umbrella, and the courtier,
2076. 2:33:14–2:33:21Referring to Versanticina, Lakshmi without the lotus flower is she,
2077. 2:33:21–2:33:25loveliest arrow of God, come as bow,
2078. 2:33:25–2:33:28the sweetest blossom on love's magic tree.
2079. 2:33:28–2:33:32See how she moves, so gracefully and slow.
2080. 2:33:32–2:33:36In passion's hour she still loves modesty.
2081. 2:33:36–2:33:40In her good wives their dearest sorrow know
2082. 2:33:40–2:33:43when passion's drama shall enacted be.
2083. 2:33:43–2:33:47When on love stage appears the passing show,
2084. 2:33:47–2:33:50a host of wanderers shall bend them low,
2085. 2:33:50–2:33:53glad to be slaves in such captivity.
2086. 2:33:53–2:33:57See! Vasantacena! See!
2087. 2:33:57–2:34:00The clouds hang drooping to the mountain peaks,
2088. 2:34:00–2:34:02like a maiden's heart.
2089. 2:34:02–2:34:06That distant lover seeks the peacock's startle
2090. 2:34:06–2:34:08when the thunder booms
2091. 2:34:08–2:34:11and fan the heaven with all their jeweled plumes.
2092. 2:34:11–2:34:17And again? Mud-stained. And pelted by the streaming rain.
2093. 2:34:17–2:34:20To drink the falling drops, the frogs are fain.
2094. 2:34:20–2:34:24Full-throated peacocks love shrill passion show.
2095. 2:34:24–2:34:28And neeper flowers like brilliant candles glow.
2096. 2:34:28–2:34:33Unfaithful clouds obscure the hostage moon. Like naves.
2097. 2:34:33–2:34:39Unworthy of so dear a boon. Like some poor maid of better breeding bear.
2098. 2:34:39–2:34:43The impatient lightning rests not anywhere.
2099. 2:34:43–2:34:46Sir, what you say is most true.
2100. 2:34:46–2:34:50For the night, an angry rival, bars my way,
2101. 2:34:50–2:34:53Her thunder's fame would check and hinder me.
2102. 2:34:53–2:34:57Fond fool, with him I love thou shalt not stay.
2103. 2:34:57–2:35:00T is I, T is I.

2105. 2:35:30–2:35:39But see, Vasantasena, another cloud, Spared by the fickle fury of the air, a flood of
2106. 2:35:39–2:35:42arrows in his rushing streams.
2107. 2:35:42–2:35:50His drum, the roaring thunder's mighty blare, His banner, living lightning's awful gleams,
2108. 2:35:50–2:35:57Rages within the sky, and shows him bold, Mid-beams that to the moon allegiance, oh,
2109. 2:35:57–2:36:03a hero king within the hostile hold of his unwarlike foe.
2110. 2:36:03–2:36:11True, true, and more than this, as dark as elephants, these clouds alone, fall like a
2111. 2:36:11–2:36:17cruel dart with streaks of lightning and with white birds strewn to wound my wretched heart.
2112. 2:36:17–2:36:26But, oh, why should the heron, bird of doom, with that perfidious sound, of, rain, rain,
2113. 2:36:26–2:36:33green, grim summons to the tomb. For her who spends her lonely hours in blooms true salt
2114. 2:36:33–2:36:36upon the wound.
2115. 2:36:36–2:36:44Very true. Vasantasena. And yet again. It seems as if the sky would take the guise of some
2116. 2:36:44–2:36:51fierce elephant to service bread. The lightning like a waving streamer flies. And white cranes
2117. 2:36:51–2:36:53serve to deck his mighty head.
2118. 2:36:53–2:37:00Look, serve, look, clouds, black as wet tamala leaves.
2119. 2:37:00–2:37:03The ball of heaven hide from our sight.
2120. 2:37:03–2:37:07Rain smitten homes of ants decay and fall.
2121. 2:37:07–2:37:09Like beasts that arrows smite.
2122. 2:37:09–2:37:12Like golden lambs within a lordly hall.
2123. 2:37:12–2:37:18Wander the lightnings bright, as when men steal the wife of some base-troll.
2124. 2:37:18–2:37:21Clouds rob the moon of light.
2125. 2:37:21–2:37:28See! Vasantacena! See! Clouds! Harnessed in the lightning's gleams,
2126. 2:37:28–2:37:33Like charging elephants dash by, At Indra's bidding.
2127. 2:37:33–2:37:38Pour their streams, Until with silver cords it seems,
2128. 2:37:38–2:37:42That earth is linked with sky, And look yonder.
2129. 2:37:42–2:37:45As herds of buffaloes, the clouds are black,
2130. 2:37:45–2:37:51The winds deny them ease, They fly on lightning wings and little lack.
2131. 2:37:51–2:37:55Of seeming troubled seas, smitten with falling drops,
2132. 2:37:55–2:38:00The fragrance odd, upon whose bosom greenest grass is nod,
2133. 2:38:00–2:38:05Seems pierced with pearls, each pearl an arrowy rod.
2134. 2:38:05–2:38:10And here is yet another cloud, the peacock's shrill voiced cry,
2135. 2:38:10–2:38:15Emplause it to draw nigh, and ardent cranes on high,
2136. 2:38:15–2:38:19Abrace it lovingly, the wistful swan's a spy,
2137. 2:38:19–2:38:25The lotus-sweetest sky, the darkest colors lie on heaven clingingly.
2138. 2:38:25–2:38:30True! For see! A thousand lotuses that bloom by night,
2139. 2:38:30–2:38:34a thousand blooming when the day is bright,
2140. 2:38:34–2:38:37nor close nor op'r their eyes to heaven's sight.
2141. 2:38:37–2:38:41There is no night nor day. The face of heaven,
2142. 2:38:41–2:38:47thus shrouded in the night, is only for a single instant bright.
2143. 2:38:47–2:38:52When momentary lightning gives us sight, else is it dark all way.
2144. 2:38:52–2:38:55Now sleeps the world as still as in the night.
2145. 2:38:55–2:38:59Within the house of rain, where nought is bright.
2146. 2:38:59–2:39:02Where hosts of swollen clouds seem to our sight.
2147. 2:39:02–2:39:05One covering veil of grey.
2148. 2:39:05–2:39:10True and see, the stars are lost like mercies given
2149. 2:39:10–2:39:12to men of evil heart.
2150. 2:39:12–2:39:14Like lonely parted wives,
2151. 2:39:14–2:39:22The heaven sees all her charms depart and molten in the cruel heat of Indra's bolt,
2152. 2:39:22–2:39:30its seams as if the sky fell at our feet. In liquid, flowing streams and yet again,
2153. 2:39:30–2:39:38the clouds first darkly rise, then darkly fall, send forth their floods of rain and thunder all,
2154. 2:39:38–2:39:44Assuming posture strange and manifold, like men but newly blessed with wealth untold.
2155. 2:39:45–2:39:49True. The heaven is radiant with the lightning's glare.
2156. 2:39:49–2:39:57Its laughter is the cry of myriad cranes. Its voice. The bolts that whistle through the air.
2157. 2:39:57–2:40:00Its dance. That bow whose a-
2158. 2:40:00–2:40:02विचार-विमर्शक रेक। विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2159. 2:40:02–2:40:04विचार-विमर्शक रेक। विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2160. 2:40:04–2:40:06विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2161. 2:40:06–2:40:08विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2162. 2:40:08–2:40:10विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2163. 2:40:10–2:40:12विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2164. 2:40:12–2:40:14विचार-विमर्शक रेक।
2165. 2:40:14–2:40:20Thus, why lie? To him I love drawn-eye. Why do thy thunders frighten me in pain?
2166. 2:40:20–2:40:27Why am I seized upon by hands of rain? O Indra, mighty Indra, did I then give thee
2167. 2:40:27–2:40:33of my love before? That now thy clouds like mighty lions roar?
2168. 2:40:33–2:40:37Ah, no! Thou shouldst not send thy streaming rain.
2169. 2:40:37–2:40:43To fill my journey to my love with pain. Remember, for ahalya sweet saake thou once
2170. 2:40:43–2:40:51didst lie. Thou knowest lovers' pain, as Thou didst suffer then. Now suffer I, O cruel,
2171. 2:40:51–2:40:59cease thy reign, and yet, thunder in reign enlighten hundredfold. Fort from thy sky above.
2172. 2:40:59–2:41:06The woman pounced Thou not delay nor hold. Who journeys to her lough? Let thunders roar,
2173. 2:41:06–2:41:12for men were cruel ever. But, O, Thou made enlightening, didst Thou never, know pains
2174. 2:41:12–2:41:21that maidens know. But mistress, do not scold the lightning. She is your friend. This golden
2175. 2:41:21–2:41:29cord that trembles on the breast of great Eravator. Upon the crest of rocky hills this banner
2176. 2:41:29–2:41:36all ablaze. This lamp in Indra's palace. But most blessed. As telling where your most
2177. 2:41:36–2:41:45beloved stays. And here, sir, is his house. You know all the arts, and need no instruction
2178. 2:41:45–2:41:53now. Yet love bids me prattle. When you enter here, you must not show yourself too angry.
2179. 2:41:53–2:42:01Where anger is. Their love is not. Or no? Except for anger hot. There is no love.
2180. 2:42:01–2:42:03Be angry.
2181. 2:42:03–2:42:04Make him angry, then.
2182. 2:42:04–2:42:06Be kind.
2183. 2:42:06–2:42:09And make him kind again the man you love.
2184. 2:42:09–2:42:10So much for that?
2185. 2:42:10–2:42:11Who is there?
2186. 2:42:11–2:42:14Let Charu Datta know.
2187. 2:42:14–2:42:16That while clouds look beautiful.
2188. 2:42:16–2:42:18And in the hour?
2189. 2:42:18–2:42:21Fragrant with neeper and cadamba flower.
2190. 2:42:21–2:42:23She comes to see her lover.
2191. 2:42:23–2:42:25Very wet.
2192. 2:42:25–2:42:26With dripping locks.
2193. 2:42:26–2:42:29But pleased and loving yet.
2194. 2:42:29–2:42:34Though lightning and though thunder terrifies, she comes to see you.
2195. 2:42:34–2:42:36Tea is for you, she sighs.
2196. 2:42:36–2:42:40The mud still soils the anklets on her feet.
2197. 2:42:40–2:42:43But in a moment she will have them sweet.
2198. 2:42:43–2:42:48Listening, my friend, free discover what this means.
2199. 2:42:48–2:42:50Yes, sir.
2200. 2:42:50–2:42:52He approaches Vasantasina.
2201. 2:42:52–2:42:55Respectfully, heaven bless you.

2216. 2:43:42–2:43:47Aside, gambler, ah, she's paying a compliment to my friend
2217. 2:43:47–2:43:52friend. Allowed, Madam, here he is in the dry orchard.
2218. 2:43:52–2:43:56But sir, what do you call a dry orchard?
2219. 2:43:56–2:44:04Madam, it's a place where there's nothing to eat or drink, Basantacina smiles. Pray enter, Madam.
2220. 2:44:04–2:44:08Aside to her mead, what shall I see when I enter?
2221. 2:44:08–2:44:15Gambler, what luck this evening! Quote, shall I dare to see it?
2222. 2:44:15–2:44:19When the time comes, it will say itself.
2223. 2:44:19–2:44:21Enter, Madam.
2224. 2:44:21–2:44:28Enters, approaches Charu Ditta, and strikes him with the flowers which she holds.
2225. 2:44:28–2:44:32Well, Gamla, what luck this evening?
2226. 2:44:32–2:44:41discovers her, ah, Vasantasena is here, he rises joyfully, oh, my beloved, my evenings

2230. 2:44:58–2:45:00Here is a seat, be seated.
2231. 2:45:00–2:45:30विसंतसीना चित्स आप आप आप विचार-विमर्शक नाटक विचार-विमर्शक नाटक विचार-विमर्शक नाटक विचार-विमर्शक नाटक अप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आ� आ� आप आप आप आ� आ
2232. 2:45:30–2:45:32My Traeha, do you stay here?
2233. 2:45:32–2:45:35I will wait upon my Mistress.
2234. 2:45:35–2:45:37She does so.
2235. 2:45:37–2:45:43Aside to Charodata, my friend, I just like to ask the lady a question.
2236. 2:45:43–2:45:44Then do so.
2237. 2:45:44–2:45:45Allowed.
2238. 2:45:45–2:45:50Madam, what made you come here, when it is so stormy and dark that you can't see
2239. 2:45:50–2:45:52the moon?
2240. 2:45:52–2:45:56Mistress, the Brahmin is very plain spoken.
2241. 2:45:56–2:45:59You might better call him Pleaver.
2242. 2:45:59–2:46:05My mistress came to ask how much that pearl necklace is worth.
2243. 2:46:05–2:46:11Aside to Charodota. There, I told you so. She thinks the pearl necklace is cheap. And the
2244. 2:46:11–2:46:18golden casket is expensive. She isn't satisfied. She has come to look for something more.
2245. 2:46:18–2:46:24For my mistress imagined that it was her own. And gambled it away. And nobody knows
2246. 2:46:24–2:46:30where the gambling master has gone, for he is employed in the king's business.
2247. 2:46:30–2:46:35Madam, you are simply repeating what somebody said before.
2248. 2:46:35–2:46:39While we are looking for him, pray take this golden casket.
2249. 2:46:39–2:46:42She displays the casket.
2250. 2:46:42–2:46:44My trayah hesitates.
2251. 2:46:44–2:46:47Sir, you examine it very closely.
2252. 2:46:47–2:46:49Did you ever see it before?
2253. 2:46:49–2:46:54No, madam, but the skillful workmanship captivates the eye.
2254. 2:46:54–2:47:00Your eyes deceive you, sir. This is the golden casket.
2255. 2:47:00–2:47:08Joyfully. Well, my friend, here is the golden casket, the very one that thieves stole from our house.
2256. 2:47:08–2:47:22My friend, the artifice we tried before. Her stolen treasure to Risto is practiced now on us. But no, I cannot think, T is really so.
2257. 2:47:22–2:47:26But it is so, I swear it on my brahmin hood.
2258. 2:47:26–2:47:28This is welcome news.
2259. 2:47:28–2:47:33Aside to Charadatta, I'm going to ask where they found it.
2260. 2:47:33–2:47:35I see no harm in that.
2261. 2:47:35–2:47:38Whispers in the maid's ear. There.
2262. 2:47:38–2:47:42Whispers in my tray's ear. So there.
2263. 2:47:42–2:47:46What is it? And why are we left out?
2264. 2:47:46–2:47:49Whispers in Charada's ear. So there.
2265. 2:47:49–2:47:54My good girl, is this really the same golden casket?
2266. 2:47:54–2:47:58Yes. Sir, the very same.
2267. 2:47:58–2:48:04My good girl, I have never let the bearer of welcome news go unrewarded.
2268. 2:48:04–2:48:12Take this ring as your recompense. He looks at his finger, notices that the ring is gone,
2269. 2:48:12–2:48:14and betrays his embarrassment.
2270. 2:48:14–2:48:19To herself, I love you for that.
2271. 2:48:19–2:48:26Aside to Maitreya, alas, when in this world a man has lost his all, why should he set
2272. 2:48:26–2:48:33his heart on longer life? His angers and his favours fruitless fall. His purposes and
2273. 2:48:33–2:48:40powers are all its strife. Like wingless birds, dry pools, or withered trees, like
2274. 2:48:40–2:48:48famless snakes, the poor are like to these. Like man-deserted houses, blasted trees,
2275. 2:48:48–2:48:54like empty wells, the poor are like to these. For them no pleasant hours serve
2276. 2:48:54–2:48:59happy ends. They are forgotten of their sometime friends.
2277. 2:48:59–2:49:02But you must not grieve thus beyond reason.
2278. 2:49:02–2:49:08He bursts out laughing, aloud, Madam, please give me back my bath cloud.
2279. 2:49:08–2:49:14Charu Dutta, it was not right that you should show your distrust of me by sending me this
2280. 2:49:14–2:49:16pearl necklace.
2281. 2:49:16–2:49:24With an embarrassed smile, but remember, Vasanta Sinha, who will believe the truth?
2282. 2:49:24–2:49:25Suspicion now is sure.
2283. 2:49:25–2:49:28This world will show no wrath.
2284. 2:49:28–2:49:30the inglorious poor.
2285. 2:49:30–2:49:34Tell me, girl, are you going to sleep here tonight?
2286. 2:49:34–2:49:41Laughing. But good, my Traya, you show yourself most remarkably plain spoken now.
2287. 2:49:41–2:49:48See, my friend, the rain enters again in great streams, as if it wanted to drive people
2288. 2:49:48–2:49:52away when they are sitting comfortably together.
2289. 2:49:52–2:49:59you are quite right, the falling waters pierce the cloud. As Lutus shoots the soil. And there's
2290. 2:50:00–2:50:30विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार-विचार
2291. 2:50:30–2:50:38Bears. Red lightning, glad in union, clasps the sky, with voluntary arms, and shows on
2292. 2:50:38–2:50:44high, the love that made an heart to lover bears.
2293. 2:50:44–2:50:51Vasantasena betrays her passion, and throws her arms about Charudatta. Charudatta feels
2294. 2:50:51–2:50:55her touch, and embraces her.
2295. 2:50:55–2:51:01No grimly yet, O thunder, boom, for by thy grace and power,
2296. 2:51:01–2:51:08My love-distracted limbs now bloom, Like the Kadamba flower, her dear touch all my
2297. 2:51:08–2:51:13Bean-thrills, And love my inmost spirit fills.
2298. 2:51:13–2:51:20Can found you, storm, you are no gentleman To frighten the lady with the lightning.
2299. 2:51:20–2:51:22Do not rebuke the storm.
2300. 2:51:22–2:51:26My friend, let's ceaseless reign a hundred years in dear.
2301. 2:51:26–2:51:33The lightning quiver, and the thunder peel, for what I deemed impossible is show.
2302. 2:51:33–2:51:36Her dear loved arms about my neck I feel.
2303. 2:51:36–2:51:41And oh, my friend, he only knows what riches are.
2304. 2:51:41–2:51:44Whose love comes to him from afar.
2305. 2:51:44–2:51:47Whose arms that dearest form enfold.
2306. 2:51:47–2:51:50While yet with rain, tea is wet and cold.
2307. 2:51:50–2:51:59Vasantasena, my beloved, the masonry is shaken, and so old, the awning, that, tea will not
2308. 2:51:59–2:52:01much longer hold.
2309. 2:52:01–2:52:09Heavy with water is the painted wall, from which dissolving bits of mortar fall.
2310. 2:52:09–2:52:10He looks up.
2311. 2:52:10–2:52:15The rainbow, see, my beloved, see.
2312. 2:52:15–2:52:17See how they yawn.
2313. 2:52:17–2:52:24The cloudy jaws of heaven, as by a tongue, by forked lightning-riven, and to the sky-great
2314. 2:52:24–2:52:26Indra's fiery bow.
2315. 2:52:26–2:52:29In lieu of high-uplifted arms is given.
2316. 2:52:29–2:52:33Come, let us seek a shelter.
2317. 2:52:33–2:52:35He rises and walks about.

2319. 2:52:38–2:52:39On thickets still.
2320. 2:52:39–2:52:41On boulders dashing.
2321. 2:52:41–2:52:43On waters splashing.
2322. 2:52:43–2:52:46Like a lute that, smitten.
2323. 2:52:46–2:52:49sings. The rainy music rings.
2324. 2:52:49–2:52:57Excellent Omnis. Enter a maid.
2325. 2:52:57–2:53:06Isn't my mistress awake yet? Well, I must go in and wake her. She walks about. The Santa
2326. 2:53:06–2:53:13Cena appears. Dressed. But still asleep. The maid discovers her. It is time to get
2327. 2:53:13–2:53:17up. Mistress. The morning is here.
2328. 2:53:17–2:53:22Awakening. What is the night over? Is it morning?
2329. 2:53:22–2:53:28For us it is morning. But for my mistress it appears to be night still.
2330. 2:53:28–2:53:31But girl, where is your gambler?
2331. 2:53:31–2:53:40Mistress. After giving Vardamannaka his orders, Charidatta went to the old garden pushpark around her.
2332. 2:53:40–2:53:42What orders?
2333. 2:53:42–2:53:50To have the bullock cart ready before daylight, fur, he said, Vasantasena was to come.
2334. 2:53:50–2:53:52Where, girl?
2335. 2:53:52–2:53:55Where Charudatta is.
2336. 2:53:55–2:54:00Embraces the maid. I did not have a good look at him in the evening.
2337. 2:54:00–2:54:08But today I shall see him face to face. Tell me, girl, have I found my way into the inner court?
2338. 2:54:08–2:54:16You have found your way not only into the inner court, but into the heart of everyone who lives here.
2339. 2:54:16–2:54:20Tell me, are Charu Ditta's servants vexed?
2340. 2:54:20–2:54:22They will be.
2341. 2:54:22–2:54:23When?
2342. 2:54:23–2:54:26When my mistress goes away.
2343. 2:54:26–2:54:29But not so much as I shall be.
2344. 2:54:29–2:54:34Persuasively, here, girl, take this pearl necklace.
2345. 2:54:34–2:54:37You must go and give it to my lady sister.
2346. 2:54:37–2:54:40His good wife, and give her this message.
2347. 2:54:40–2:54:43Worthy Charu Ditta's virtues have won me.
2348. 2:54:43–2:54:47Made me his slave, and therefore your slave also.
2349. 2:54:47–2:54:52And so I hope that these pearls may adorn your neck.
2350. 2:54:52–2:54:56But Mistress, Charu Datta will be angry with you.
2351. 2:54:56–2:54:59Though, he will not be angry.

2354. 2:55:33–2:55:37Pivishly, I don't like this little clay cart, Radanica.
2355. 2:55:37–2:55:40Give me my gold cart.
2356. 2:55:40–2:55:45Sighing wearily, how should we have anything to do with gold now?
2357. 2:55:45–2:55:52My child? When your papa is rich again, then you shall have a gold cart to play with.
2358. 2:55:52–2:55:56But I'll amuse him by taking him to see Vasantasena.
2359. 2:55:56–2:55:59She approaches Vasantasena.
2360. 2:55:59–2:56:06I am glad to see you. Radha Nika. But whose little boy is this?
2361. 2:56:06–2:56:12He wears no ornaments. Yet his dear little face makes my heart happy.
2362. 2:56:12–2:56:16This is Sherudita's son, Rowsena.
2363. 2:56:16–2:56:23Stretches out her arms. Thumb, my boy. And put your little arms around me.
2364. 2:56:23–2:56:28me. She takes him on her lap. He looks just like his father.
2365. 2:56:28–2:56:37More than looks like him. He is like him. At least I think so. His father is perfectly devoted to him.
2366. 2:56:37–2:56:40But what is he crying about?
2367. 2:56:40–2:56:52He used to play with a gold cart that belongs to the son of a neighbour. But that was taken away. And when he asked for it, I made him this little clay cart.
2368. 2:56:52–2:56:59But when I gave it to him, he said, I don't like this little clay card.
2369. 2:56:59–2:57:02Radanaka, give me my gold card.
2370. 2:57:02–2:57:09Oh, dear, to think that this little fellow has to suffer because others are wealthy.
2371. 2:57:09–2:57:17Ah, mighty fate, the destinies of men, uncertain as the water drops which fall upon a lotus leaf.
2372. 2:57:17–2:57:19Seem to be but playthings.
2373. 2:57:19–2:57:26Tearfully, don't cry, my child, you shall have a gold cart to play with.
2374. 2:57:26–2:57:29Who is she, Radhannaka?
2375. 2:57:29–2:57:33A slave of your fathers, won by his virtues.
2376. 2:57:33–2:57:37My child, the lady is your mother.
2377. 2:57:37–2:57:39That's a lie, Radhannaka.
2378. 2:57:39–2:57:45If the lady is my mother, why does she wear those pretty ornaments?
2379. 2:57:45–2:57:50My child, your innocent lips can say terrible things.
2380. 2:57:50–2:57:53She removes her ornaments, weeping.
2381. 2:57:53–2:57:55Now I am your mother.
2382. 2:57:55–2:58:00You shall take these ornaments and have a gold cart made for you.
2383. 2:58:00–2:58:04Go away. I won't take them. You're crying.
2384. 2:58:04–2:58:08Wiping away her tears. I'll not cry.
2385. 2:58:08–2:58:11Dear, there. Go and play.
2386. 2:58:11–2:58:14She fills the clay cart with her jewels.
2387. 2:58:14–2:58:20there. Dear, you must have a little bolt cart made for you.
2388. 2:58:20–2:58:29Exit Radanika, with Rohasena. Enter Vardamanaka, driving a bullet cart.
2389. 2:58:29–2:58:36Radanika, Radanika, tell Mistress Vasantasena that the covered cart is standing ready at
2390. 2:58:36–2:58:38the side door.
2391. 2:58:38–2:58:45Mistress, Vardamanaka is here, and he says that the cart is waiting at the side door.
2392. 2:58:45–2:58:50He must wait a minute, girl, while I get ready.
2393. 2:58:50–2:58:55Wait a minute, Vardamanaka, while she gets ready.
2394. 2:58:55–2:58:56Exit.
2395. 2:58:56–2:59:01Hello. I've forgotten the cushion. I must go and get it.
2396. 2:59:01–2:59:04But the nose rope makes the bullock skittish.
2397. 2:59:04–2:59:09I suppose I had better take the card along with me. Exit.
2398. 2:59:09–2:59:16Bring me my things, girl. I must make myself ready. She does so.
2399. 2:59:16–2:59:23Enter, driving a bullet cart, Stavaraka, servant to Sansternaka.
2400. 2:59:23–2:59:28Sansternaka. The king's brother-in-law. Said to me,
2401. 2:59:28–2:59:35Take a bullock cart. Stavaraka. And come as quick as you can to the old garden pushpackeranda.
2402. 2:59:35–2:59:40Well, I'm on my way there. Get up. Bullocks. Get up.
2403. 2:59:40–2:59:46He drives about and looks around. Why? The road is blocked with villagers' carts.
2404. 2:59:46–2:59:51What am I to do now? Haughtily. Get out of my way.
2405. 2:59:51–2:59:55You? Get out of my way! He listens.
2406. 2:59:55–2:59:58What's that? You want to know whose cart this is?
2407. 2:59:58–3:00:00This cart belongs to...

2409. 3:00:30–3:00:31Get out of my way!
2410. 3:00:31–3:00:32What's that?
2411. 3:00:32–3:00:36You want me to wait a minute and put a shoulder to your wheel?
2412. 3:00:36–3:00:37Confound you!
2413. 3:00:37–3:00:39A brave man like me!
2414. 3:00:39–3:00:41That serves Sanktonaka!
2415. 3:00:41–3:00:43The king's brother-in-law!
2416. 3:00:43–3:00:45Put a shoulder to your wheel!
2417. 3:00:45–3:00:48After all, the poor fellow is quite alone.
2418. 3:00:48–3:00:49I'll do it!
2419. 3:00:49–3:00:53I'll stop my cart at the side door to Charu Datta's orchard.
2420. 3:00:53–3:00:54He does so!
2421. 3:00:54–3:00:55I'm coming!
2422. 3:00:55–3:00:56Exit!
2423. 3:00:56–3:01:02Mistress, I think I hear the sound of wheels. The cart must be here.
2424. 3:01:02–3:01:08Come, girl. My heart grows impatient. Go with me to the side door.
2425. 3:01:08–3:01:11Follow me, Mistress.
2426. 3:01:11–3:01:15Walks about. You have earned a rest, girl.
2427. 3:01:15–3:01:19Thank you, Mistress. Exit.
2428. 3:01:19–3:01:26said. Feels her right-right twitch as she enters the cart. Why should my right-right twitch
2429. 3:01:26–3:01:33now? But the sight of Charu Dutta will smooth away the bad omen. Enter Stavaraka.
2430. 3:01:33–3:01:39I've cleared the carts out of the way. And now I'll go ahead. He mounts and drives away.
2431. 3:01:39–3:01:46To himself. The cart has grown heavy. But I suppose it only seems so. Because I got
2432. 3:01:46–3:01:54tired helping them with that wheel. Well, I'll go along. Get up. Bullocks. Get up.
2433. 3:01:54–3:02:01Police. Police. Every man at his post. The young herdsman has just broken jail. Killed
2434. 3:02:01–3:02:11the jailer. Broken his fetters. Escaped. And run away. Catch him. Catch him.
2435. 3:02:11–3:02:21in excited haste, Ariaka, an iron chain on one foot. Covering his face, he walks about.
2436. 3:02:21–3:02:26To himself. There is great excitement in the city. I must get out of the way as fast as
2437. 3:02:26–3:02:29I possibly can. Exit.
2438. 3:02:29–3:02:37I leave behind me that accursed sea. Of human woe in human misery. The prison of the king.
2439. 3:02:37–3:02:40Like elephants that break their chains and flee.
2440. 3:02:40–3:02:43I drag a fettered foot most painfully.
2441. 3:02:43–3:02:48In flight and wandering, King Palakka was frightened by a prophecy.
2442. 3:02:48–3:02:55Took me from the hamlet where I lived, fettered me, and thrust me into a solitary cell.
2443. 3:02:55–3:02:57There to await my death.
2444. 3:02:57–3:03:01But with the help of my good friend Sharvilaka I escaped.
2445. 3:03:01–3:03:03He shed steers.
2446. 3:03:03–3:03:10If such my fate, no sin is mine at least, That he should cage me like a savage beast.
2447. 3:03:10–3:03:17A man may fight with kings, though not with fate and yet, Can helpless men contend with
2448. 3:03:17–3:03:18great?
2449. 3:03:18–3:03:21Wither shall I go with my wretchedness?
2450. 3:03:21–3:03:27He looks about, here is the house of some good man who hasn't locked the side door.
2451. 3:03:27–3:03:31The house is old, the door without a lock.
2452. 3:03:31–3:03:38The hinges all awry, some man, no doubt, who feels must fortune's shock, as cruelly as
2453. 3:03:38–3:03:42I, I will enter here and wait.
2454. 3:03:42–3:03:44Get up, Bullocks! Get up!
2455. 3:03:44–3:03:51Listening, ah, a bullock cart is coming this way. If this should prove to be a picnic
2456. 3:03:51–3:03:58rig, its occupants not pivishly inclined. Some noble ladies waiting carriage-trig, or
2457. 3:03:58–3:04:05rich man's coach, that leaves the town behind and if it empty be. Fate-proofing kind,
2458. 3:04:05–3:04:13tea would seem a god sent to my anxious mind. Enter Vada Manaka with the bullet cart.
2459. 3:04:14–3:04:21There, I've got the cushion. Radha Nika, tell Mistress Vasantasina that the cart is ready
2460. 3:04:21–3:04:26and waiting for her to get in and drive to the old. Garden Pushbackaranda.
2461. 3:04:26–3:04:36listening. This is a cortisans cart. Going out of the city. Good. I'll climb in. He approaches cautiously.
2462. 3:04:36–3:04:44Here's him coming. Ah, the tinkling of ankle rings. The lady is here. Mistress. The nose
2463. 3:04:44–3:04:51rope makes the bullock skittish. You had better climb in behind. Ariaka does so. The ankle
2464. 3:04:51–3:04:58rings tinkle only when the feet are moving and the sound has ceased. Besides, the cart
2465. 3:04:58–3:05:00has grown heavy. I am shi-

2467. 3:05:30–3:05:36gate of the main street. You at the west, you at the south, you at the north. I'll
2468. 3:05:36–3:05:42climb up the broken wall here with Chandanaka and take a look. Come on,
2469. 3:05:42–3:05:51Chandanaka, come on, this way. Enter Chandanaka in excitement. Come, come,
2470. 3:05:51–3:06:00Viraka, Vishalya, Bhimingartha, Dandakala, Dandashura, and the rest of you.
2471. 3:06:00–3:06:03Come quick, my Reliables.
2472. 3:06:03–3:06:04Work.
2473. 3:06:04–3:06:05Now begin.
2474. 3:06:05–3:06:10Lest the Old King go out, and a new King come in.
2475. 3:06:10–3:06:19Search gardens, and dives, and the town, and the street, the market, the hamlet,
2476. 3:06:19–3:06:27Wherever you meet, with what looks suspicious, now, Viraka, say, who saved the young herdsmen
2477. 3:06:27–3:06:29that just broke away?
2478. 3:06:29–3:06:33Who was born when the sun in his eighth mansion stood?
2479. 3:06:33–3:06:35Or the moon in her fourth?
2480. 3:06:35–3:06:39Or when Jupiter could be seen in his sixth?
2481. 3:06:39–3:06:43Or when Saturn was resting in his ninth?
2482. 3:06:43–3:06:47In her sixth house when Venus was nesting
2483. 3:06:47–3:06:49Or Mars in his fifth
2484. 3:06:49–3:06:51Who will dare to be giving
2485. 3:06:51–3:06:53The herdsman protection
2486. 3:06:53–3:06:55While I am still living?
2487. 3:06:55–3:06:56Nine
2488. 3:06:56–3:06:58Ten

2495. 3:07:09–3:07:12Get up, Bullocks, get up
2496. 3:07:12–3:07:19discovers him. Look, man, look, a covered cart is moving in the middle of the road.
2497. 3:07:20–3:07:25Investigate it. Who's it is. And where it takes its load.
2498. 3:07:26–3:07:35Discovers him. Here, driver, stop your cart. Whose cart is this? Who is in it? Where is it going?
2499. 3:07:35–3:07:45This is Charada's cart. Mistress Vasantacina is in it. I am taking her to the Old Garden Pushpakaranda to meet Charada.
2500. 3:07:45–3:07:58Approaches Chandanaka. The driver says it is charouded as cart. That Vasantacina is in it. That he is taking her to the Old Garden Pushpakaranda.
2501. 3:07:58–3:08:03Then let it pass without inspection?
2502. 3:08:03–3:08:05Certainly.
2503. 3:08:05–3:08:07On whose authority?
2504. 3:08:07–3:08:09On charuditas.
2505. 3:08:09–3:08:11Who is Charudata?
2506. 3:08:11–3:08:13Or who is Vasantasina?
2507. 3:08:13–3:08:17That the cart should pass without inspection.
2508. 3:08:17–3:08:19Don't you know Charudata?
2509. 3:08:19–3:08:20Man?
2510. 3:08:20–3:08:22Nor Vasantasina?
2511. 3:08:22–3:08:24If you don't know Charudata?
2512. 3:08:24–3:08:26Nor Vasantasina?
2513. 3:08:26–3:08:33Then you don't know the moon in heaven nor the moonlight. Who doesn't know this moon of goodness?
2514. 3:08:34–3:08:38Virtues lotus flower this gem of four broad seas
2515. 3:08:39–3:08:46This savior in man's luckless hour. These two are holy worshipful our cities ornaments

2520. 3:09:02–3:09:08but I do not know my father when I am serving of my king.
2521. 3:09:08–3:09:13To himself, in a former existence the one must have been my enemy.
2522. 3:09:13–3:09:18The other my kinsmen, for see, their business is the same.
2523. 3:09:18–3:09:25their wies, unlike, and their desire, like fleems that gladden wedding-dies, and fleems
2524. 3:09:25–3:09:28upon the pyre.
2525. 3:09:28–3:09:31You are a most careful captain whom the king trusts.
2526. 3:09:31–3:09:34I am holding the bullocks.
2527. 3:09:34–3:09:36Make your inspection.
2528. 3:09:36–3:09:40You too are a corporal whom the king trusts.
2529. 3:09:40–3:09:43Make the inspection yourself.
2530. 3:09:43–3:09:49If I make the inspection, that, s just the same as if you had made it.
2531. 3:09:49–3:09:56If you make the inspection, that, s just the same as if King Palaka had made it.
2532. 3:09:56–3:09:59Lift the pole, man.
2533. 3:09:59–3:10:00Vaadamana.
2534. 3:10:00–3:10:02चंदनाखर दासो।
2535. 3:10:02–3:10:06तो विम्सल्फ, आद पलीस्मन अबाद तो इन्स्पेक्त मी।
2536. 3:10:06–3:10:08आद आप नो स्वादु।
2537. 3:10:08–3:10:13वो स्लक, बध अट लीस्ट, भोल्ड भीमा स्पिरित आविल शो।
2538. 3:10:13–3:10:15मैं आम शल भी मैं स्वाद।
2539. 3:10:15–3:10:18बेट अवर्याज देप दन वो।
2540. 3:10:18–3:10:29That sells and chains a foad. But the time to use force has not yet come. Chandanaka enters the cart and looks about. I seek your protection.
2541. 3:10:29–3:10:35Speaking in Sanskrit, he who seeks protection shall be safe.
2542. 3:10:35–3:10:42When he fight, that man will suffer hurts, will be abandoned of his friends and kin,
2543. 3:10:42–3:10:50becomes a mock for ever, who deserts, once seeking aid, tea is an unpardoned sin.
2544. 3:10:50–3:10:55What! the herdsman Ayaka, like a bird that flees from a hawk,
2545. 3:10:55–3:11:02he has fallen into the hand of the fowler, reflecting, he is no sinner,
2546. 3:11:02–3:11:14This man who seeks my protection and sits in Sherudit as cart. Besides, he is the friend of Good Shavillica, who saved my life. On the other hand,
2547. 3:11:14–3:11:27there are the king's orders. What is a man to do in a case like this? Well, what must be, must be. I promised him my protection just now.
2548. 3:11:27–3:11:41He who gives aid to frightened men, enjoys his neighbour's ills to cure. If he must die, he dies, but then his reputation is secure."
2549. 3:11:41–3:11:51He gets down uneasily. I saw the gentleman correcting himself. I mean, the lady Vasantasina, and she says,
2550. 3:11:51–3:12:00Is it proper? Is it gentlemanly? When I am going to visit Charudatta, to insult me on the highway?"
2551. 3:12:00–3:12:02quote
2552. 3:12:02–3:12:06Chandanaka, I have my suspicions.
2553. 3:12:06–3:12:09Suspicions? How so?
2554. 3:12:09–3:12:20You gurgled in your craven throat. It seems a trifle shady. You said, I saw the gentleman, and then, I saw the lady.
2555. 3:12:20–3:12:2420 that's why I'm not satisfied.
2556. 3:12:24–3:12:26What's the matter with you?
2557. 3:12:26–3:12:27Man?
2558. 3:12:27–3:12:29We Southerners don't speak plain.
2559. 3:12:29–3:12:50We know a thousand dialects of the barbarians, the Caches, the Cates, the Cadas, the Catebillars, the Carnators, the Carnas, the Pravaranas, the Dravidas, the Cholas, the Chinas, the Barbaras,
2560. 3:12:50–3:12:58the Caerys, the Carnas, the Muckas, the Madagatas, and all the rest of M.
2561. 3:12:58–3:13:08And it all depends on the way we feel whether we say, he, or she, gentlemen, or lady.
2562. 3:13:08–3:13:15Can't I have a look, too? It's the king's orders, and the king trusts me.
2563. 3:13:15–3:13:18I suppose the king doesn't trust me."
2564. 3:13:18–3:13:22Is entered his majesty's command?
2565. 3:13:22–3:13:23Aside.
2566. 3:13:23–3:13:28If people knew that the good herdsmen escaped in Sherudit as cart,
2567. 3:13:28–3:13:31then the king would make Charodata suffer for it.
2568. 3:13:31–3:13:33What's to be done?
2569. 3:13:33–3:13:34Reflecting.
2570. 3:13:34–3:13:39I'll stir up a quarrel the way they do down in the Carnatic.
2571. 3:13:39–3:13:40Allowed.
2572. 3:13:40–3:13:41Well.
2573. 3:13:41–3:13:42Viraka.
2574. 3:13:42–3:13:50I made one inspection myself. My name is Chandanaka, and you want to do it over again.
2575. 3:13:50–3:13:59Who are you? Confound it. Who are you? Anyway, an honorable and highly respectable person,
2576. 3:13:59–3:14:07and you don't remember your own family. Angrily, confound you. What is my family?
2577. 3:14:07–3:14:10Who speaks of such things?
2578. 3:14:10–3:14:11Speak.
2579. 3:14:11–3:14:15I think I'd better not.
2580. 3:14:15–3:14:18I know your family, but I won't say.
2581. 3:14:18–3:14:20T would not be modest.
2582. 3:14:20–3:14:23Such things to betray.
2583. 3:14:23–3:14:25What goods are rotten apple anyway?
2584. 3:14:25–3:14:26Speak.
2585. 3:14:26–3:14:27Speak.
2586. 3:14:27–3:14:31Chandanaka makes a significant gesture.
2587. 3:14:31–3:14:32Confound you.
2588. 3:14:32–3:14:34What does that mean?
2589. 3:14:34–3:14:38A broken whetstone in one hand, a thing
2590. 3:14:38–3:14:45that looks like scissors in the other wing to trim the scrubby beards that curl and cling.
2591. 3:14:45–3:14:47And you, why?
2592. 3:14:47–3:14:50You, rear captain of the king.
2593. 3:14:50–3:14:58Well, Chandanaka, you highly respectable person, you don't remember your own family either.
2594. 3:14:58–3:15:00me what is
2595. 3:15:00–3:15:30विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो विश्द तो वि
2596. 3:15:30–3:15:36Come and you, why you, rear captain of the king.
2597. 3:15:36–3:15:40Raffaully, I, Chandanaka, a tana.
2598. 3:15:40–3:15:43You can look at the cart.
2599. 3:15:43–3:15:46You, driver, turn the cart around.
2600. 3:15:46–3:15:49I want to look in.
2601. 3:15:49–3:15:51Vada Manaka does so.
2602. 3:15:51–3:15:54Varaka starts to climb in.
2603. 3:15:54–3:15:59Shandanaka seizes him violently by the hair.
2604. 3:15:59–3:16:09him down and kicks him. Rising, wrathfully, confound you. I was peaceably going about the king's
2605. 3:16:09–3:16:16business when you seized me violently by the hair and kicked me. So listen, if I don't
2606. 3:16:16–3:16:22have you drawn and quartered in the middle of the courtroom. My name's not Viraka.
2607. 3:16:22–3:16:27All right, go to court or to a hall of justice.
2608. 3:16:27–3:16:30What do I care for a puppy like you?
2609. 3:16:30–3:16:31I will.
2610. 3:16:31–3:16:33Exit.
2611. 3:16:33–3:16:34Looks about him.
2612. 3:16:34–3:16:35Go on.
2613. 3:16:35–3:16:36Driver.
2614. 3:16:36–3:16:37Go on.
2615. 3:16:37–3:16:45If anybody asks you, just say, the cart has been inspected by Chandanakar and Viraka.
2616. 3:16:45–3:16:50Mistress Vasantasina, let me give you a passport.
2617. 3:16:50–3:16:56He hands Ayakara sword, takes it joyfully to himself.
2618. 3:16:56–3:17:05A sword, a sword, my right eye twitches fast, now all is well, and I am safe at last.
2619. 3:17:05–3:17:12Madam, as I have given you a passage free, so may I live within your memory to utter
2620. 3:17:12–3:17:13this.
2621. 3:17:13–3:17:16No selfish thoughts could move.
2622. 3:17:16–3:17:20Ah no, I speak in plenitude of love.
2623. 3:17:20–3:17:23Chandanaka is rich in virtue's pure.
2624. 3:17:23–3:17:27My friend is he, fate willed it, true and tried.
2625. 3:17:27–3:17:31I, I'll not forget Chandanaka.
2626. 3:17:31–3:17:36Be sure, what time the oracle is justified.
2627. 3:17:36–3:17:44Meshiva, Vishnu, Brahma, Three in One, Protect Thee, and the Moon, and Blessed
2628. 3:17:44–3:17:53Slay all thy foes. As mighty Povati, slu Shumbha and Nishambha, fearfully.
2629. 3:17:53–3:18:07Exit Vada Manaka. With the bullet cart, Chandanaka looks toward the back of the stage. Aha! As he goes away, my good friend Shavalaka is following him.
2630. 3:18:07–3:18:16Well, I, V made an enemy of Varaka, the chief constable and the king's favorite, so I think
2631. 3:18:16–3:18:23I too had better be following him with all my sons and brothers.
2632. 3:18:23–3:18:27Exit.
2633. 3:18:27–3:18:31Enter Sharudatta and Maitreya.
2634. 3:18:31–3:18:35How beautiful the old garden pushbackoranda is.
2635. 3:18:35–3:18:43You are quite right, my friend, for see, the trees, like merchants, show their wares, each
2636. 3:18:43–3:18:47several trees is blossoms bears.
2637. 3:18:47–3:18:54While bees, like officers, are flitting, to take from each what toll is fitting.
2638. 3:18:54–3:18:57This simple stone is very attractive.
2639. 3:18:57–3:18:59Pray be seated.
2640. 3:18:59–3:19:04Seats himself, how were the Manaka lingers, my friend?
2641. 3:19:04–3:19:10I told Vardamanaka to bring Visanticina and come as quickly as he could.
2642. 3:19:10–3:19:12Why then does he linger?
2643. 3:19:12–3:19:15Is he delayed by some slow-moving load?
2644. 3:19:15–3:19:20Has he returned with broken wheel or traces?
2645. 3:19:20–3:19:22Obstructions bid him seek another road.
2646. 3:19:22–3:19:29His bullocks, or himself, choose these slow paces.
2647. 3:19:29–3:19:35Vada Manaka with the Bullock Cart, in which Ariaka lies hidden.
2648. 3:19:35–3:19:37Get up, Bullocks, get up!
2649. 3:19:37–3:19:39Aside!
2650. 3:19:39–3:19:42And still I fear the Spies that serve the King.
2651. 3:19:42–3:19:45Escape is even yet a doubtful thing.
2652. 3:19:45–3:19:48While to my foot these cursed fetters cling.
2653. 3:19:48–3:19:51Some good man, T is.
2654. 3:19:51–3:19:53Within whose cart I lie.
2655. 3:19:53–3:19:57Like Cuckoo Chicks, whose heartless mothers fly.
2656. 3:19:57–3:19:59and crows must rear the fledglings.

2658. 3:20:30–3:20:32man's heart. To see me rescued from
2659. 3:20:32–3:20:36misfortune see. This body, in its suffering,
2660. 3:20:36–3:20:40pain, and smart, is saved through his
2661. 3:20:40–3:20:44sweet magnanimity. Here is the garden, I
2662. 3:20:44–3:20:48ll drive in. He does so, matriah. Good
2663. 3:20:48–3:20:51news, my friend. It is Varda Monica's
2664. 3:20:51–3:20:55voice. Vasantacina must have come. Good
2665. 3:20:55–3:20:59news, indeed. You son of a slave, what
2666. 3:20:59–3:21:01That makes you so late.
2667. 3:21:01–3:21:07Don't get angry, good matria, I remembered that I had forgotten the cushion, and I had
2668. 3:21:07–3:21:11to go back for it, and that is why I am late.
2669. 3:21:11–3:21:14Turn the cart around, where the manca.
2670. 3:21:14–3:21:19Maitreya, my friend, help Wissentus'enor to get out.
2671. 3:21:19–3:21:24Has she got fetters on her feet, so that she can't get out by herself?
2672. 3:21:24–3:21:27He rises and lifts the curtain of the cart.
2673. 3:21:27–3:21:28Why?
2674. 3:21:28–3:21:30Please end Mistress Vasantasina.
2675. 3:21:30–3:21:33This is Mr. Vasantasina.
2676. 3:21:33–3:21:36A truce to your jests, my friend.
2677. 3:21:36–3:21:37Love cannot wait.
2678. 3:21:37–3:21:40I will help her to get out myself.
2679. 3:21:40–3:21:47He rises, discovers him, ah, the owner of the bullock cart.
2680. 3:21:47–3:21:53He is attractive not only to the ears of men, but also to their eyes.
2681. 3:21:53–3:21:56Thank heaven, I am safe.
2682. 3:21:56–3:22:03the bullock cart and discovers Ariyaka. Who then is this? As trunk of elephant his arms
2683. 3:22:03–3:22:10are long. His chest is full, his shoulders broad and strong. His great eyes restless
2684. 3:22:10–3:22:18red. Why should this man be thus enforced to fight so noble he? With such ignoble plight.
2685. 3:22:18–3:22:25His foot to fetters wed? Who are you, sir? I am one who seeks your protection,
2686. 3:22:25–3:22:29Aryaka, by birth a herdsman.
2687. 3:22:29–3:22:36Are you he whom king Palika took from the hamlet where he lived and thrust into prison?
2688. 3:22:36–3:22:37The same.
2689. 3:22:37–3:22:41Tea is fate that brings you to my sight.
2690. 3:22:41–3:22:43May I be reft of heaven's light.
2691. 3:22:43–3:22:48Air I desert you in your hapless plight.
2692. 3:22:48–3:22:52Aryaka manifests his joy.
2693. 3:22:52–3:22:56Lord Hanukka, remove the fetters from his foot.
2694. 3:22:56–3:23:02Yes, sir, he does so. Master, the fetters are removed.
2695. 3:23:02–3:23:06But you have bound me with yet stronger fetters of love.
2696. 3:23:06–3:23:13Now you may put on the fetters yourself. He is free anyway, and it is time for us to be going.
2697. 3:23:13–3:23:16Peace! For shame!
2698. 3:23:16–3:23:21Charu Ditta, my friend, I entered your cart somewhat unceremoniously.
2699. 3:23:21–3:23:29I beg your pardon. I feel honoured that you should use no ceremony with me.
2700. 3:23:29–3:23:37If you permit it, I now desire to go. Go in peace. Thank you, I will alight from
2701. 3:23:37–3:23:42the cart. No, my friend, the fetters have but this
2702. 3:23:42–3:23:49moment been removed. And you will find walking difficult. In this spot where men seek pleasure,
2703. 3:23:49–3:23:53A bullock cart will excite no suspicion.
2704. 3:23:53–3:23:56Continue your journey then in the cart.
2705. 3:23:56–3:23:59I thank you, sir.
2706. 3:23:59–3:24:01Seek now thy kinsmen.
2707. 3:24:01–3:24:03Happiness be thine.
2708. 3:24:03–3:24:08Ah, I have found thee, blessed kinsmen mine.
2709. 3:24:08–3:24:12Remember me, when thou hast cause to speak.
2710. 3:24:12–3:24:17Thy name, and not mine bone, my words shall seek.
2711. 3:24:17–3:24:21May the immortal gods protect thy ways.
2712. 3:24:21–3:24:25Thou didst protect me, in most perilous days.
2713. 3:24:25–3:24:30Nay, it was fate that sweet protection lent.
2714. 3:24:30–3:24:34But thou wasst chosen as fate's instrument.
2715. 3:24:34–3:24:35Seven.
2716. 3:24:35–3:24:39King Palakar is aroused, and protection will prove difficult.
2717. 3:24:39–3:24:43You must depart at once.
2718. 3:24:43–3:24:45Until we meet again, farewell.
2719. 3:24:45–3:24:47Exit.
2720. 3:24:47–3:24:50In royal wroth I now have much to fear.
2721. 3:24:50–3:24:53It were unwise for me to linger here.
2722. 3:24:53–3:24:55Then throw the fetters in the well.
2723. 3:24:55–3:24:59For spies, serve to their king as keen.
2724. 3:24:59–3:25:00Far see

2726. 3:25:30–3:25:45reflecting. Let him enter by that path. While we depart by this, exit. Enter a monk with a wet garment in his hand.
2727. 3:25:45–3:25:53Year ignorant. Lay by a store of virtue. Restrain the belly. Watch eternally,
2728. 3:25:53–3:26:03Heeding the beat of contemplation's drum, for else the senses, fearful thieves they be, will steal away all virtues hoarded some.
2729. 3:26:03–3:26:11And further? I have seen that all things are transitory, so that now I am become the abode of virtues alone.
2730. 3:26:11–3:26:19Who slays the five men and the female bane, by whom protection to the town is given,
2731. 3:26:19–3:26:22by whom the outcast impotent is slain.
2732. 3:26:22–3:26:26He cannot fail to enter into heaven,
2733. 3:26:26–3:26:29though head be shorn and face be shorn.
2734. 3:26:29–3:26:30The heart unshawn.
2735. 3:26:30–3:26:33Why should man shave him?
2736. 3:26:33–3:26:35But he who's in most heart is shorn,
2737. 3:26:35–3:26:38needs not the shaven head to save him.
2738. 3:26:38–3:26:41I have dyed this robe of mine yellow,
2739. 3:26:41–3:26:46and now I will go into the garden of the king's brother in law,
2740. 3:26:46–3:26:47wash it in the pond,
2741. 3:26:47–3:26:50and go away as soon as I can.
2742. 3:26:50–3:26:53He walks about and washes the robe.
2743. 3:26:53–3:26:56Sh'top! You confounded monk!
2744. 3:26:56–3:26:58Sh'top!
2745. 3:26:58–3:27:00Discovers the speaker.
2746. 3:27:00–3:27:03Fearfully. Heaven help me.
2747. 3:27:03–3:27:06Here is the king's brother in law.
2748. 3:27:06–3:27:11Sansternaka. Just because one monk committed an offense.
2749. 3:27:11–3:27:14Now, wherever he sees a monk,
2750. 3:27:14–3:27:17Whether it is the same one or not,
2751. 3:27:17–3:27:21he bores a hole in his nose and drives him around like a bullock.
2752. 3:27:21–3:27:25Where shall a defenseless man find a defender?
2753. 3:27:25–3:27:30But after all, the Blessed Lord Buddha is my defender.
2754. 3:27:30–3:27:32Enter the courtier,
2755. 3:27:32–3:27:36carrying a sword and Sannsternaka.
2756. 3:27:36–3:27:39Stop. You confounded monk.
2757. 3:27:39–3:27:45I'll pound your head like a red radish at a drinking party."
2758. 3:27:45–3:27:47He strikes him.
2759. 3:27:47–3:27:49You jackass.
2760. 3:27:49–3:27:54You should not strike a monk who wears the yellow robes of renunciation.
2761. 3:27:54–3:27:55Why heed him?
2762. 3:27:55–3:28:00Look rather upon this garden, which offers itself to pleasure.
2763. 3:28:00–3:28:02To creatures else forlorn.
2764. 3:28:02–3:28:04The forest trees.
2765. 3:28:04–3:28:07Do works of mercy.
2766. 3:28:07–3:28:08Granting joy and ease.
2767. 3:28:08–3:28:13Like a sinner's heart, the park unguarded lies.
2768. 3:28:13–3:28:18Like some new founded realm, an easy prize.
2769. 3:28:18–3:28:19Heaven bless you.
2770. 3:28:19–3:28:23Be merciful, servant of the Blessed One.
2771. 3:28:23–3:28:25Did you hear that, sure?
2772. 3:28:25–3:28:27He's insulting me.
2773. 3:28:27–3:28:29What does he say?
2774. 3:28:29–3:28:31Shays, I'm a servant.
2775. 3:28:31–3:28:33What do you take me for?
2776. 3:28:33–3:28:35A barber?
2777. 3:28:35–3:28:40A servant of the blessed one, he calls you, and this is praise.
2778. 3:28:40–3:28:43Praise me, es home more, monk.
2779. 3:28:43–3:28:45You are virtuous.
2780. 3:28:45–3:28:46You are a brick.
2781. 3:28:46–3:28:48She?
2782. 3:28:48–3:28:50He shays I'm virtuous.
2783. 3:28:50–3:28:52He shays I'm a brick.
2784. 3:28:52–3:28:53What do you think I am?
2785. 3:28:53–3:28:56A materialistic philosopher?
2786. 3:28:56–3:28:58Or a watering trough?
2787. 3:28:58–3:29:00Or a pot maker?
2788. 3:29:00–3:29:01You jackass!
2789. 3:29:01–3:29:06He praises you when he says that you are virtuous, that you are a brick.
2790. 3:29:06–3:29:11Well, sure, what did he come here for?
2791. 3:29:11–3:29:13To wash this robe.
2792. 3:29:13–3:29:15Confound the monk.
2793. 3:29:15–3:29:19My shishter's husband gave me the finessed garden there is.
2794. 3:29:19–3:29:21The garden pushparkeranda.
2795. 3:29:21–3:29:24Dogs and jackals drink the water in fish pond.
2796. 3:29:24–3:29:26Now I'm an arishhtakrat.
2797. 3:29:26–3:29:27I'm a man.
2798. 3:29:27–3:29:30And I don't even take a bath.
2799. 3:29:30–3:29:33And here you bring your stinking clothes.
2800. 3:29:33–3:29:36All stained with stale bean porridge.
2801. 3:29:36–3:29:37And wash, em.
2802. 3:29:37–3:29:40I think one good stroke will finish you.
2803. 3:29:40–3:29:46You jackass, I am sure he has not long been a monk.
2804. 3:29:46–3:29:48How can you tell?
2805. 3:29:48–3:29:49Sure.
2806. 3:29:49–3:29:51It doesn't take much to tell that.
2807. 3:29:51–3:29:52See?
2808. 3:29:52–3:29:54His hair is newly shorn.
2809. 3:29:54–3:29:56The brow still white.
2810. 3:29:56–3:29:59The rough cloak has not yet the shoulder scarred.
2811. 3:30:00–3:30:07He wears it awkwardly. It clings not tight. And here above, the fit is sadly marred.
2812. 3:30:07–3:30:14True, servant of the Blessed One, I have been a monk, but a short time.
2813. 3:30:14–3:30:19Then why haven't you been one all your life? He beats him.
2814. 3:30:19–3:30:21Buddha be praised.
2815. 3:30:21–3:30:27Stop beating the poor fellow. Leave him alone. Let him go.
2816. 3:30:27–3:30:31Just wait a minute, while I take counsel.
2817. 3:30:31–3:30:33With whom?
2818. 3:30:33–3:30:35With my own heart.
2819. 3:30:35–3:30:39Poor fellow, why didn't he escape?
2820. 3:30:39–3:30:43Bleshed little heart, my little shon and master,
2821. 3:30:43–3:30:47Shall the monk go, or shall the monk shtay?
2822. 3:30:47–3:30:52To himself. Neither go, nor shtay.
2823. 3:30:52–3:31:00Allowed. Well. Sure. I took counsel with my heart. And my heart shays.
2824. 3:31:00–3:31:02Says what?
2825. 3:31:02–3:31:09He shall neither go, nor shtay. He shall neither breathe up, nor breathe down.
2826. 3:31:09–3:31:15He shall fall down right here and die. Before you can shay, boo.
2827. 3:31:15–3:31:20Buddha be praised. I throw myself upon your protection.
2828. 3:31:20–3:31:22Let him go.
2829. 3:31:22–3:31:25Well, on one condition.
2830. 3:31:25–3:31:27And what is that?
2831. 3:31:27–3:31:29He mushed sling mud in,
2832. 3:31:29–3:31:32without making the water dirty.
2833. 3:31:32–3:31:33Or better yet,
2834. 3:31:33–3:31:36he mushed make the water into a ball,
2835. 3:31:36–3:31:38and sling it into the mud.
2836. 3:31:38–3:31:41What incredible folly!
2837. 3:31:41–3:31:44The patient earth is burdened by
2838. 3:31:44–3:31:45so many a fool,
2839. 3:31:45–3:31:47so many a drone.
2840. 3:31:47–3:31:49Whose thoughts and deeds are all
2841. 3:31:49–3:31:55arrive these trees of flesh. These forms of stone.
2842. 3:31:55–3:32:01The monk makes faces at Sanktarnaka. What does he mean?
2843. 3:32:01–3:32:07He praises you. Praise me, s'homemore. Praise me again.
2844. 3:32:07–3:32:13The monk does so. Then exit. See how beautiful the garden is.
2845. 3:32:13–3:32:20Jackass. See yonder trees. Adorned with fruit and flowers. Oh, a witch the clinging creepers
2846. 3:32:20–3:32:27interlace. The watchmen guard them with the royal powers. They seem like men whom loving
2847. 3:32:27–3:32:35wives embrace. A good description. Sure. The ground is mottled with a lot of flowers.
2848. 3:32:35–3:32:40The Blossom Freight bends down the lofty trees. And. Hanging from the leafy tree
2849. 3:32:40–3:32:47top bowers. The monkey's bob, like breadfruit in the breeze.
2850. 3:32:47–3:32:55Will you be seated on this stone bench, you jackass? I am seated. They seat themselves.
2851. 3:32:55–3:33:02Do you know? Sure. I remember that Vicenticina even yet. She is like an insha. I can't
2852. 3:33:02–3:33:05get her out of my mind."
2853. 3:33:05–3:33:09Aside, he remembers her even after such a repulse.
2854. 3:33:09–3:33:17For indeed, the mean man whom a woman spurns, but loves them or the wise man's passion
2855. 3:33:17–3:33:21gentler burns, or passes over.
2856. 3:33:21–3:33:23Shome time has pashed.
2857. 3:33:23–3:33:29Sure, since I told my shervant stevarica to take the bullock cart and come as quick
2858. 3:33:29–3:33:33as he could, and even yet he is not here.
2859. 3:33:33–3:33:39I've been hungry a long time, and at noon a man can't go a foot.
2860. 3:33:39–3:33:46For she, the shun is in the middle of the shky, and hard to look at as an angry ape.
2861. 3:33:46–3:33:52Like Gandhari, whose hundred shuns did die, the earth is hard dish-dressed and can't
2862. 3:33:52–3:33:54eschcape.
2863. 3:33:54–3:33:55True.
2864. 3:33:55–3:33:57The cattle all.
2865. 3:33:57–3:34:00Their cuds let fall lie drowsing in the shade.
2866. 3:34:00–3:34:06In heated pool their lips to cool, Deer throng the woodland glade.
2867. 3:34:06–3:34:11A prey to heat, the city street, Makes wanderers afraid.
2868. 3:34:11–3:34:16The cart must shun the midday sun, And thus has been delayed.
2869. 3:34:16–3:34:18Yes, sir.
2870. 3:34:18–3:34:21Fashed to my head the heated shun bean clings.
2871. 3:34:21–3:34:26Birds, flying creatures, Al-show winged things,
2872. 3:34:26–3:34:33reached in the branches of the trees. While men, people, and persons shy and shy again
2873. 3:34:33–3:34:41at home they tarry in their houses shtay to bear the heat and burden of the day. Well,
2874. 3:34:41–3:34:48sure, that shervant is ent here yet. I am going to shing shomething to pashe the time.
2875. 3:34:48–3:34:54He sings there, sure, did you hear what I shang?
2876. 3:34:54–3:34:55What shall I say?
2877. 3:34:55–3:34:59Ah, how melodious.
2878. 3:34:59–3:35:00Why should end it be?
2879. 3:35:00–3:35:30विमलोडरस्विमर्श्विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक विमर्शक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक नाटक न
2880. 3:35:30–3:35:37Why should ent it be melodorous? Of the flesh of the cook who I make up a chowder
2881. 3:35:37–3:35:41With devils dung added and black pepper powder
2882. 3:35:41–3:35:44With oil and with butter I sprinkle the meat
2883. 3:35:44–3:35:51Why should ent my voice be remarkably sweet? But sure, the chervant is ent here yet
2884. 3:35:51–3:35:57Be easy in your mind. He will be here presently
2885. 3:35:57–3:36:01Enter Vasantacina in the Bullock Heart and Stavaraka.
2886. 3:36:02–3:36:16I am frightened. It is already noon. I hope Santshtanaka, the king's brother-in-law, will not be angry. I must drive faster. Get up! Bullocks! Get up!
2887. 3:36:16–3:36:26Alas! That is not Vardhamanaka's voice. What does it mean? I wonder if Charu Ditta was afraid that the Bullocks might become weary.
2888. 3:36:27–3:36:30and so sent another man with another cart.
2889. 3:36:30–3:36:32My right eye twitches.
2890. 3:36:32–3:36:34My heart is all it tremble.
2891. 3:36:34–3:36:36There is no one in sight.
2892. 3:36:36–3:36:40Everything seems to dance before my eyes."
2893. 3:36:40–3:36:42Hearing the sound of wheels,
2894. 3:36:42–3:36:45the cart is here, sure.
2895. 3:36:45–3:36:47How do you know?
2896. 3:36:47–3:36:49Can't you see?
2897. 3:36:49–3:36:52It squeaks like an old hog.
2898. 3:36:52–3:36:54Perceives the cart.
2899. 3:36:54–3:36:55Quite true.
2900. 3:36:55–3:36:56It is here.
2901. 3:36:56–3:37:02Stavarica, my little Sean, my slave, are you here?
2902. 3:37:02–3:37:04Yes, sir.
2903. 3:37:04–3:37:06Is the cart here?
2904. 3:37:06–3:37:08Yes, sir.
2905. 3:37:08–3:37:10Are the bullocks here?
2906. 3:37:10–3:37:12Yes, sir.
2907. 3:37:12–3:37:14And are you here?
2908. 3:37:14–3:37:18Laughing, yes, master, I am here too.
2909. 3:37:18–3:37:21Then drive the cart in.
2910. 3:37:21–3:37:23By which road?
2911. 3:37:23–3:37:27right here, where the wall is tumbling down.
2912. 3:37:27–3:37:37Oh, master. The bullocks will be killed. The cart will go to pieces. And I, your servant, shall be killed.
2913. 3:37:37–3:37:50I'm the king's brother in law. Man, if the bullocks are killed, I, I'll buy S-Home more. If the cart goes to pieces, I, I'll have another one made.
2914. 3:37:50–3:37:53If you are killed, there will be another driver.
2915. 3:37:54–3:37:57Everything will be replaced, except me.
2916. 3:37:57–3:38:02Let the whole thing go to pieces. Drive in over the wall.
2917. 3:38:02–3:38:08Then break. Cut. Break with your driver. There will be another cut.
2918. 3:38:08–3:38:18I must go and present myself to my master. He drives in. What? Not broken? Master. Here is your cut.
2919. 3:38:18–3:38:21The Bullock's not SHPLIT in two?
2920. 3:38:21–3:38:23And the Rope's not killed?
2921. 3:38:23–3:38:25And you two not killed?
2922. 3:38:25–3:38:26No.
2923. 3:38:26–3:38:27Sir.
2924. 3:38:27–3:38:28Come.
2925. 3:38:28–3:38:29Sure.
2926. 3:38:29–3:38:31Let's look at the cart.
2927. 3:38:31–3:38:33You are my teacher.
2928. 3:38:33–3:38:34Sure.
2929. 3:38:34–3:38:35My very best teacher.
2930. 3:38:35–3:38:38You are a man I respect.
2931. 3:38:38–3:38:39My intimate friend.
2932. 3:38:39–3:38:41A man I delight to honour.
2933. 3:38:41–3:38:44Do you enter the cart first?
2934. 3:38:44–3:38:46Very well.
2935. 3:38:46–3:38:48He starts to do so.
2936. 3:38:48–3:38:49Not much.
2937. 3:38:49–3:38:50Stop.
2938. 3:38:50–3:38:52Is this your father's cart?
2939. 3:38:52–3:38:54That you should enter it first?
2940. 3:38:54–3:38:56I own this cart.
2941. 3:38:56–3:38:59I'll enter it first.
2942. 3:38:59–3:39:02I only did what you said.
2943. 3:39:02–3:39:09Even if I do shei shou, you ought to be polite enough to shei, after you, Masha.
2944. 3:39:09–3:39:11After you, then.
2945. 3:39:11–3:39:13Now I'll enter.
2946. 3:39:13–3:39:19Devarika, my little shon, my slave, turn the cart around.
2947. 3:39:19–3:39:21Dusso.
2948. 3:39:21–3:39:23Enter, master.
2949. 3:39:23–3:39:30Enters and looks about, then hastily gets out in terror, and falls on the courtier's neck.
2950. 3:39:30–3:39:33Oh, oh, oh, you're a dead man.
2951. 3:39:33–3:39:36There's a witch, or a thief.
2952. 3:39:36–3:39:39That's sitting and living in my bullet cart.
2953. 3:39:39–3:39:43If it's a witch, we, all both be robbed.
2954. 3:39:43–3:39:47If it's a thief, we, I'll both be eaten alive.
2955. 3:39:47–3:39:49Don't be frightened.
2956. 3:39:49–3:39:52How could a witch travel in a bullet cart?
2957. 3:39:52–3:39:57I hope that the heat of the midday sun has not blinded you, so that you became the
2958. 3:39:57–3:39:59victim of an hallucination when you
2959. 3:40:00–3:40:30विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक।, विश्वारिक�
2960. 3:40:30–3:40:39show. On high-born dames I hesitate to gaze. In amazement, aside, oh, oh, it is that thorn
2961. 3:40:39–3:40:47in my eye. The king's brother in law. Alas, the danger is great, poor woman. My coming
2962. 3:40:47–3:40:53hither proves as fruitless as the sowing of a handful of seeds on salty soil. What shall
2963. 3:40:53–3:40:58I do now? Fish-old shervant is afraid and he won't
2964. 3:40:58–3:41:03look into the cart. Will you look into the cart, sure?"
2965. 3:41:03–3:41:10I see no harm in that. Yes, I will do it. Are those things jackals that I she flying
2966. 3:41:10–3:41:15into the air? And are those things crows that walk on all fours? While the witch is
2967. 3:41:15–3:41:21chewing him with her eyes, and looking at him with her teeth? I, I'll make my esch
2968. 3:41:21–3:41:23gapay."
2969. 3:41:23–3:41:31perceives Vasanticina. Sadly to himself. Is it possible? The gazelle follows the tiger.
2970. 3:41:31–3:41:39Alas! Her mate is lovely as the autumn moon. Who waits for her upon the sandy dune? And
2971. 3:41:39–3:41:47yet the swan will leave him. And will go. To dance attendance on a common crow.
2972. 3:41:47–3:41:56Aside to Versanticina. Ah, Versanticina. This is neither right, nor worthy of you.
2973. 3:41:56–3:42:02Your pride rejected him before, yet now for gold, and for your mother's will.
2974. 3:42:02–3:42:05No, she shakes her head.
2975. 3:42:05–3:42:12Your nature knows your pride no more. You honor him. A common woman still.
2976. 3:42:12–3:42:16Seventeen, did I not tell you to serve the man you love
2977. 3:42:16–3:42:24and him you hate. I made a mistake in the cart, and thus I came hither. I throw myself
2978. 3:42:24–3:42:33upon your protection. Do not fear. Come. I must deceive him. He returns to Sansternaca.

2983. 3:42:54–3:43:00we came to the city? To Ujjaini? What harm would that do?
2984. 3:43:00–3:43:04And if we did, what then?
2985. 3:43:04–3:43:08Then we should have some exercise, and should avoid tiring the bullocks.

3193. 3:59:41–3:59:43Give me my pledge.
3194. 3:59:43–3:59:45What pledge?
3195. 3:59:45–3:59:47Vasantasina
3196. 3:59:47–3:59:49She's gone
3197. 3:59:49–3:59:50Where?
3198. 3:59:50–3:59:52Right after you
3199. 3:59:52–3:59:57Doubtfully, no, she did not go in that direction
3200. 3:59:57–4:00:00In what direction did you go?
3201. 4:00:00–4:00:02तोवर्द दीएश्ट।
3202. 4:00:02–4:00:05Well, she went shout.
3203. 4:00:05–4:00:07So did I.
3204. 4:00:07–4:00:09She went north.
3205. 4:00:09–4:00:11This is nonsense.
3206. 4:00:11–4:00:15My heart is not satisfied. Speak the truth.
3207. 4:00:15–4:00:20I sh wear by your head, sure, and my own feet.
3208. 4:00:20–4:00:24You may be easy in your heart. I murdered her.
3209. 4:00:24–4:00:28Despairingly. You really killed her.
3210. 4:00:28–4:00:39If you don't believe my words, then she the first heroic deed of Sanzthunnaka, the king's brother in law. He points out the body.
3211. 4:00:39–4:00:49Alas! Ah! Woe is me! He falls in a swoon! He, he, the gentleman is calm enough now.
3212. 4:00:49–4:00:58Oh, sir, come to yourself. I am the first murderer, for I brought the bullet-cart hither without looking into it."
3213. 4:00:58–4:01:08Comes to himself. Mournfully. Alas. Vasantacena. The stream of courtesy is dried away,
3214. 4:01:08–4:01:17and happiness to her own landoth flee. Sweet gem of gems. That new love's gentle play? Love's martin beauties?
3215. 4:01:17–4:01:22Joy of men like me, thy mirth shored stream,
3216. 4:01:22–4:01:29That kind and healing river alas, is perished, lost, and gone forever.
3217. 4:01:29–4:01:34Tearfully, ah, woe is me.
3218. 4:01:34–4:01:38What sin is yet to come, or woe?
3219. 4:01:38–4:01:42Now thou hast done this deed of hate, like sin's foul self.
3220. 4:01:42–4:01:47Hast thou laid low, the sinless goddess of our state.
3221. 4:01:47–4:01:58Aside. Ah. Perhaps the wretch means to lay this sin to my charge. I must go, hence. He walks about.
3222. 4:01:58–4:02:08Sansternaka approaches and holds him back. Scoundrel. Touch me not. I have done with you. I go.
3223. 4:02:08–4:02:15Aha! First you murder Visantasena. Then you abuse me. And now where will you run to?
3224. 4:02:15–4:02:20and show a man like me has ent anybody to protect him.
3225. 4:02:20–4:02:23You are an accursed scoundrel.
3226. 4:02:23–4:02:30I'll give you countless wealth, a piece of gold, a copper, and a cap, to have and hold,
3227. 4:02:30–4:02:38and show the fame of fish great deed shall be a common property, and shan't touch me.
3228. 4:02:38–4:02:44Accurse upon you, yours, and yours only, be the deed.
3229. 4:02:44–4:02:46Heaven avert the omen.
3230. 4:02:46–4:02:49Sansternaca bursts out laughing.
3231. 4:02:49–4:02:51Be enmity between us.
3232. 4:02:51–4:02:53Cease your mirth.
3233. 4:02:53–4:02:56Damned be a friendship that so shames my worth.
3234. 4:02:56–4:02:59Never may I set eyes on one so low.
3235. 4:02:59–4:03:01I fling you off.
3236. 4:03:01–4:03:04An unstrung, broken bow.
3237. 4:03:04–4:03:06Don't be angry.
3238. 4:03:06–4:03:07Come.
3239. 4:03:07–4:03:10Let's go and play in the pond.
3240. 4:03:10–4:03:12Unstained my life.
3241. 4:03:12–4:03:19And yet it seems to me, your friendship stains and mocks my sinlessness.
3242. 4:03:19–4:03:25You woman murderer! How could I be a friend to one whom women ever see,
3243. 4:03:25–4:03:29with eyes half closed in apprehension stress?
3244. 4:03:29–4:03:33Mournfully, Vasantesina.
3245. 4:03:33–4:03:42When thou, sweet maid, art born again, be not a courtesan reborn, but in a house which
3246. 4:03:42–4:03:48signless men, and virtuous, and good, adorn.
3247. 4:03:48–4:03:55First you murder Vasantasena in my old garden Pushpakaranda, and now where will you run to?
3248. 4:03:55–4:04:00Come, defend your shelf in court before my shishters husband.
3249. 4:04:00–4:04:01He holds him back.
3250. 4:04:01–4:04:05Enough, you accursed scoundrel.
3251. 4:04:05–4:04:07He draws his sword.
3252. 4:04:07–4:04:08Recoiling in terror.
3253. 4:04:08–4:04:09Scared.
3254. 4:04:09–4:04:10Are you?
3255. 4:04:10–4:04:11Go along.
3256. 4:04:11–4:04:12Then.
3257. 4:04:12–4:04:14Aside.
3258. 4:04:14–4:04:16It would be folly to remain here.
3259. 4:04:16–4:04:17Well.
3260. 4:04:17–4:04:24I will go and join myself to Shavalaka, Shandanaka, and the rest?
3261. 4:04:24–4:04:25Exit.
3262. 4:04:25–4:04:27Go to hell.
3263. 4:04:27–4:04:28Well.
3264. 4:04:28–4:04:33Shonsta Varaka. What kind of a thing is fish that I, vey done?
3265. 4:04:33–4:04:37Master, you have committed a terrible crime.
3266. 4:04:37–4:04:45Shlave. What do you mean by talking about a crime? Well, I, I'll do it fishway. He takes
3267. 4:04:45–4:04:51various ornaments from his person. Take these gems I give, em to you. Whenever I want
3268. 4:04:51–4:04:59to wear them. I, I'll take them back again. But the rest of the time they are yours."
3269. 4:04:59–4:05:00They should be worn only.
3270. 4:05:00–4:05:30विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्विश्�
3271. 4:05:30–4:05:37But first I, I'll take a look at her. Is she dead? Or shall I murder her again? He looks at
3272. 4:05:37–4:05:46Versantasina. Dead as a doornail. Good. I, I'll cover her with fish cloak. No. It has my name on it.
3273. 4:05:46–4:05:53Shomehoneshman might recognize it. Well, here are S. Home dry leaves that the wind has blown
3274. 4:05:53–4:06:02into a heap. I, Ul cover her with them. He does so. Then pauses to reflect. Good. I, Ul
3275. 4:06:02–4:06:10do it this way. I, Ul go to court at once. And there I, Ul lodge a complaint. I, Ul
3276. 4:06:10–4:06:17say that the merchant Charudatta enticed Vasantasena into my old garden Pushpa Kauranda,
3277. 4:06:17–4:06:24and killed her for her money. Yesh! Charudatta must be slaughtered now. And I, I'll invent
3278. 4:06:24–4:06:32the plan. Forgetting pity. The sacrificing of a sinless cow. Is cruel in the kindish-hearted
3279. 4:06:32–4:06:39city. Now I, am ready to go. He starts to go away. But perceives something that frightens
3280. 4:06:39–4:06:45him. Goodness gracious me. Wherever I go, fish-dammed monk comes with his yellow
3281. 4:06:45–4:06:53robes. I bored a hole in his nose once and drove him around. And he hates me. Perhaps
3282. 4:06:53–4:06:59he'll she me, and will tell people that I murdered her. How shall I escapay? He looks
3283. 4:06:59–4:07:07about. Aha! I'll jump over the wall where it is half fallen down. And escapay that
3284. 4:07:07–4:07:16I run, I run, I go, in heaven, on earth below, in hell, and in salon, Hanumat speaks upon
3285. 4:07:16–4:07:18like Indra's self.
3286. 4:07:18–4:07:22I go, exit."
3287. 4:07:22–4:07:26Enter hurriedly the Buddhist monk, Ex Shampua.
3288. 4:07:26–4:07:29I've washed these rags of mine.
3289. 4:07:29–4:07:32Shall I let them dry on a branch?
3290. 4:07:32–4:07:33No.
3291. 4:07:33–4:07:35The monkeys would steal them.
3292. 4:07:35–4:07:37On the ground?
3293. 4:07:37–4:07:39The dust would make them dirty again.
3294. 4:07:39–4:07:43Well then, where shall I spread them out to dry?
3295. 4:07:43–4:07:45He looks about.
3296. 4:07:45–4:07:46Ah!
3297. 4:07:46–4:07:51Here is a pile of dry leaves which the wind has blown into a heap.
3298. 4:07:51–4:07:54I, L, L spread them out on that.
3299. 4:07:54–4:07:55He does so.
3300. 4:07:55–4:07:57Buddha be praised.
3301. 4:07:57–4:07:58He sits down.
3302. 4:07:58–4:08:01Now I will repeat him of the faith.
3303. 4:08:01–4:08:09who slays the five men and the female bane by whom protection to the town is given, by
3304. 4:08:09–4:08:17whom the outcast impotent is slain. He cannot fail to enter into heaven. After all, what
3305. 4:08:17–4:08:25have I to do with heaven? Before I have paid my debt to Vasantacina, my sister in Buddha?
3306. 4:08:25–4:08:30She bought my freedom for ten gold pieces from the gamblers, and since that day I
3307. 4:08:30–4:08:33I regard myself as her property.
3308. 4:08:33–4:08:35He looks about.
3309. 4:08:35–4:08:36What was that?
3310. 4:08:36–4:08:39A sigh that arose from the leaves.
3311. 4:08:39–4:08:40It cannot be.
3312. 4:08:40–4:08:43The heated breezes heat the leaves.
3313. 4:08:43–4:08:46The wetted garment wets the leaves.
3314. 4:08:46–4:08:54And so, I guess, the scattered leaves curl up like any other leaves.
3315. 4:08:54–4:09:00Her Santasena begins to recover consciousness and stretches out her hand.
3316. 4:09:00–4:09:02Ah!
3317. 4:09:02–4:09:04There appears a woman's hand.
3318. 4:09:04–4:09:07Adorned with beautiful gems, what?
3319. 4:09:07–4:09:09A second hand?
3320. 4:09:09–4:09:11He examines it with the greatest care.
3321. 4:09:11–4:09:15It seems to me, I recognize this hand.
3322. 4:09:15–4:09:16Yes!
3323. 4:09:16–4:09:18There is no doubt about it.
3324. 4:09:18–4:09:19Surely!
3325. 4:09:19–4:09:22This is the hand that saved me.
3326. 4:09:22–4:09:24But I must see for myself.
3327. 4:09:24–4:09:30He uncovers the body, looks at it, and recognizes it.
3328. 4:09:30–4:09:32It is my sister in Buddha.
3329. 4:09:32–4:09:35Vasantasina pants for water.
3330. 4:09:35–4:09:36Ah!
3331. 4:09:36–4:09:38She seeks water.
3332. 4:09:38–4:09:41And the pond is far away.
3333. 4:09:41–4:09:42What shall I do?
3334. 4:09:42–4:09:43An idea.
3335. 4:09:43–4:09:47I will hold this robe over her and let it drip upon her.
3336. 4:09:47–4:09:50He does so.
3337. 4:09:50–4:09:57recovers consciousness and raises herself. The monk fans her with his garment.
3338. 4:09:57–4:09:59Who are you, sir?
3339. 4:10:00–4:10:06Has my sister in Buddha forgotten him whose freedom she bought for ten gold pieces?
3340. 4:10:06–4:10:13I seem to remember, but not just as you say. It were better that I had slept never to awaken.
3341. 4:10:13–4:10:17What happened here, sister in Buddha?
3342. 4:10:17–4:10:22Despairingly, nothing but wood is fitting for a quarter-zan.
3343. 4:10:22–4:10:38Sister in Buddha, support yourself by this creeper that clings to the tree and rise to your feet. He bends down the creeper. Vasantasena takes it in her hand and rises.
3344. 4:10:38–4:10:42In Yonda monastery dwells one who is my sister in the faith.
3345. 4:10:42–4:10:47There shall my sister in Buddha be restored before she returns home.
3346. 4:10:47–4:10:50You must walk very slowly.
3347. 4:10:50–4:10:51Sister.
3348. 4:10:51–4:10:54He walks about and looks around him.
3349. 4:10:54–4:10:55Make way.
3350. 4:10:55–4:10:56Good people.
3351. 4:10:56–4:10:58Make way.
3352. 4:10:58–4:10:59This is a young lady.
3353. 4:10:59–4:11:01And I am a monk.
3354. 4:11:01–4:11:04Yet my conduct is above reproach.
3355. 4:11:04–4:11:06The man whose hands,
3356. 4:11:06–4:11:11whose lips are free from greed, who curbs his senses?
3357. 4:11:11–4:11:13He is man indeed.
3358. 4:11:13–4:11:15He little wrecks.
3359. 4:11:15–4:11:17If kingdoms fall or stand,
3360. 4:11:17–4:11:21for heaven is in the hollow of his hand.
3361. 4:11:21–4:11:26Ex-Aunt.
3362. 4:11:26–4:11:29Enter a beadle.
3363. 4:11:29–4:11:31The magistrates said to me,
3364. 4:11:31–4:11:34Come, beadle, go to the courtroom,
3365. 4:11:34–4:11:36and make ready the seats.
3366. 4:11:36–4:11:40So now I am on my way to set the courtroom in order.
3367. 4:11:40–4:11:42He walks about and looks around him.
3368. 4:11:42–4:11:44Here is the courtroom.
3369. 4:11:44–4:11:45I will enter.
3370. 4:11:45–4:11:50He enters, sweeps, and puts a seat in its place.
3371. 4:11:50–4:11:55There, I have tidied up the courtroom and put the seats in readiness.
3372. 4:11:55–4:11:58And now I will go and tell the magistrates.
3373. 4:11:58–4:12:01He walks about and looks around him.
3374. 4:12:01–4:12:04But see, here comes that errand-nave.
3375. 4:12:04–4:12:14The king's brother-in-law. I will go away without attracting his attention. He stands apart, enter Sands Thanaka in gorgeous raiment.
3376. 4:12:14–4:12:29I bathed where water runs and flows and pearls. I shat within a garden, park and grove, with women and with females and with girls whose lovely limbs with grace angelic move.
3377. 4:12:29–4:12:56My hair is s-hometimes done uptight. You see. In locks or curls, it hangs my forehead o'er. Shometimes, t is matted. S-hometimes hanging free. And then again, I wear a pompadour. I am a wonder. I'm a wondrous thing. And the husband of my shishto is the king. And besheedies, I, vey, found a big hole.
3378. 4:12:56–4:13:00Like a worm that has crawled into the knot of a lotush root
3379. 4:13:00–4:13:03and is looking for a hole to creep out at.
3380. 4:13:03–4:13:07Now who was I going to accuse of fish-wickard deed?
3381. 4:13:07–4:13:10He recalls something. Oh, yes.
3382. 4:13:10–4:13:15I remember. I was going to accuse poor Charodata of fish-wickard deed.
3383. 4:13:15–4:13:21Besheedies. He's poor. They. I'll believe anything about him.
3384. 4:13:21–4:13:26Good. I, I'll go to the courtroom and lodge a public complaint against Charudatta.
3385. 4:13:27–4:13:31How he sh-trangled Vicenticina and murdered her.
3386. 4:13:31–4:13:34Show now I, am on my way to the courtroom.
3387. 4:13:35–4:13:37He walks about and looks around him.
3388. 4:13:37–4:13:39Here is the courtroom.
3389. 4:13:39–4:13:41I, I'll go in.
3390. 4:13:41–4:13:43He enters and looks about.
3391. 4:13:43–4:13:45Well, here are the sheets.
3392. 4:13:46–4:13:47All arranged.
3393. 4:13:47–4:13:50While I, am waiting for the Magish traits.
3394. 4:13:50–4:13:54I, I'll just sit down a minute on the grass.
3395. 4:13:54–4:13:56He does so.
3396. 4:13:56–4:14:00Walks about in another direction, and looks before him.
3397. 4:14:00–4:14:02Here come the magistrates.
3398. 4:14:02–4:14:06I will go to them. He does so.
3399. 4:14:06–4:14:12Enter the Judge, accompanied by a guiled warden, a clerk, and others.
3400. 4:14:12–4:14:15Guild Warden and Clerk.
3401. 4:14:15–4:14:18We await your bidding.
3402. 4:14:18–4:14:24The trial depends to such an extent upon others that the task of the magistrates, the reading
3403. 4:14:24–4:14:28of and others' thoughts, is most difficult.
3404. 4:14:28–4:14:32Men often speak of deeds that no man saw.
3405. 4:14:32–4:14:36Matters beyond the province of the law.
3406. 4:14:36–4:14:43Passion so rules the parties that their lies hide their offenses from judicial eyes.
3407. 4:14:43–4:14:46This side and that exaggerate a thing.
3408. 4:14:46–4:14:49At last it implicates the king.
3409. 4:14:49–4:14:53To sum it up, false blame is easy one.
3410. 4:14:53–4:14:56A true judge little praised.
3411. 4:14:56–4:14:58Or praised by none.
3412. 4:14:58–4:15:00And again?
3413. 4:15:00–4:15:07Men often point to sins that no man saw, And in their anger scorn the patient law.
3414. 4:15:07–4:15:14In courtrooms even the righteous with their lies, Hide their offences from judicial eyes,
3415. 4:15:14–4:15:21And those who did the deed are lost to view, Who sinned with plaintiff and defendant to?
3416. 4:15:21–4:15:28To sum it up, False blame is easy one, A true judge little praised,
3417. 4:15:28–4:15:36or praised by none, for the judge must be learned and skilled in tracing fraud's sly path and
3418. 4:15:36–4:15:45eloquent, insensible to wrath, to friend, foe, kinsmen showing equal grace, reserving
3419. 4:15:45–4:15:53judgment till he know the case, untouched by avarice, in virtue sound, the weak he
3420. 4:15:53–4:15:54He must defend.
3421. 4:15:54–4:15:56The nave confound.
3422. 4:15:56–4:15:58An open door to truth.
3423. 4:15:58–4:16:00His heart must cling.
3424. 4:16:00–4:16:03Two others' interests.
3425. 4:16:03–4:16:04Yet shun each thing.
3426. 4:16:04–4:16:08That might awake the anger of the king.
3427. 4:16:08–4:16:11And do men speak of defects in your virtue?
3428. 4:16:11–4:16:16If so, then they speak of darkness in the moonlight.
3429. 4:16:16–4:16:18My good beetle.
3430. 4:16:18–4:16:21Conduct me to the courtroom.
3431. 4:16:21–4:16:22Follow me.

3434. 4:16:29–4:16:36My good beedle. Do you go outside and learn who desires to present a case?
3435. 4:16:36–4:16:45Yes, sir. He goes out. Gentlemen, the magistrates ask if there is any here who desires to present a case.
3436. 4:16:45–4:16:49Gleefully, the Magish traits are here.
3437. 4:16:49–4:16:51He struts about.
3438. 4:16:51–4:16:53I desire to present a cash.
3439. 4:16:53–4:17:01I, an Aristocrat, a man, a Vasudeva, the Royal Brother-in-Law, the Brother-in-Law of
3440. 4:17:01–4:17:03the King.
3441. 4:17:03–4:17:10In alarm, goodness, the King's Brother-in-Law is the first who desires to present a case.
3442. 4:17:10–4:17:18Well, wait a moment, sir, I will inform the magistrates at once. He approaches the magistrates.
3443. 4:17:18–4:17:26Gentlemen, here is the king's brother-in-law who has come to court, desiring to present a case.
3444. 4:17:26–4:17:35What? The king's brother-in-law is the first who desires to present a case. Like an eclipse at sunrise,
3445. 4:17:35–4:17:38This betokens the ruin of some great man.
3446. 4:17:38–4:17:39Beedle.
3447. 4:17:39–4:17:43The court will doubtless be very busy today.
3448. 4:17:43–4:17:49Go forth, my good man, and say, leave us for today.
3449. 4:17:49–4:17:52Your suit cannot be considered.
3450. 4:17:52–4:17:54Yes, your honor.
3451. 4:17:54–4:17:57He goes out and approaches Sans Thanaka.
3452. 4:17:57–4:18:02Sir, the magistrates send word that you are to leave them for today.
3453. 4:18:02–4:18:05that your suit cannot be considered.

3455. 4:18:10–4:18:16If it is ent consigned red, then I, I'll tell my brother in law.
3456. 4:18:16–4:18:22King Palakka. My shishter's husband. And I, I'll tell my shishter and my mother too.
3457. 4:18:22–4:18:30And I, I'll have fish-judge removed. And another judge appointed. He starts to go away.
3458. 4:18:30–4:18:47Oh, sir, brother-in-law of the king. Wait a moment, I will inform the magistrates at once. He returns to the judge. The brother-in-law of the king is angry and says, he repeats Sans Thanaka's words.
3459. 4:18:47–4:18:56This fool might do anything. My good man, tell him to come hither, that his suit will be considered.
3460. 4:18:56–4:19:07Approaching Sans Thanika. Sir, the magistrates send word that you are to come in. That your suit will be considered. Pray enter, sir.
3461. 4:19:07–4:19:21First they say it won't be consigned red. Then they say it will be consigned red. The Magish traits are shcar, ed. Whatever I say, I, I'll make, im believe it.

3463. 4:19:34–4:19:43Aside. Well, well, we seem to have a highly cultivated plaintiff. Allowed. Pray be seated.
3464. 4:19:43–4:19:55Well, fish floor belongs to me. I'll sit down wherever I like. To the guild warden. I'll sit here. To the beetle. Why shouldn't I sit here?
3465. 4:19:55–4:20:00He lays his hand on the judge's head. I'll sit here.

3476. 4:20:31–4:20:38All this we know. Why should you boast of this your noble birth? T is character that
3477. 4:20:38–4:20:44makes the man of worth. But thorns and weeds grow rank in fertile earth. Stake
3478. 4:20:44–4:20:46your case."
3479. 4:20:46–4:20:51I will, but even if I was guilty, he wouldn't do anything to me.
3480. 4:20:51–4:20:57Well, my shishter's husband liked me and gave me the best garden there is.
3481. 4:20:57–4:21:02The old garden push parkeranda to play in and look after.
3482. 4:21:02–4:21:04And there I go every day to look at it.
3483. 4:21:04–4:21:10To keep it dry, to keep it clean, to keep it gloss-homing, to keep it trimmed, but
3484. 4:21:10–4:21:14fate decreed that I sure, or rather.
3485. 4:21:14–4:21:18I didn't see the prostrate body of a woman.
3486. 4:21:18–4:21:22Do you know who the unfortunate woman was?
3487. 4:21:22–4:21:24Hello, Magish-traits.
3488. 4:21:24–4:21:26Why shouldn't I know?
3489. 4:21:26–4:21:33A woman like that, the pearl of the city, adorned with a hundred golden ornaments.
3490. 4:21:33–4:21:37Shumbadies unworthy shun enticed her into the old garden pushpucker and a when it
3491. 4:21:37–4:21:39was empty.
3492. 4:21:39–4:21:42and for a mere trifle, for her money.
3493. 4:21:42–4:21:46S. H. strangled Vicenticina and killed her.
3494. 4:21:46–4:21:47But I didn't.
3495. 4:21:47–4:21:52He breaks off and puts his hand over his mouth."
3496. 4:21:52–4:21:55What carelessness on the part of the city police?
3497. 4:21:55–4:22:02Guildwarden and Clerk, write down the words, I didn't, as the first article in the
3498. 4:22:02–4:22:03case.
3499. 4:22:03–4:22:05Yes, sir.
3500. 4:22:05–4:22:07He does so.
3501. 4:22:07–4:22:09Sir, it is written.
3502. 4:22:09–4:22:14Aside, goodness, now I've ruined my shelf.
3503. 4:22:14–4:22:18Like a man that swallows a cake of rice and milk in a hurry.
3504. 4:22:18–4:22:21Well, I'll get out of it, fish-way.
3505. 4:22:21–4:22:25Aloud, well, well, McGish-traits.
3506. 4:22:25–4:22:28I was just remarking that I didn't see it happen.
3507. 4:22:28–4:22:31What are you making fish hullabaloo about?
3508. 4:22:31–4:22:35He wipes out the written words with his foot.
3509. 4:22:35–4:22:38How do you know that she was strangled?
3510. 4:22:38–4:22:39And for her money?
3511. 4:22:39–4:22:41Hello.
3512. 4:22:41–4:22:43Why shouldn't I think so?
3513. 4:22:43–4:22:48When her neck was swollen and bare, and the places where you wear jewels didn't have any
3514. 4:22:48–4:22:51gold on them?
3515. 4:22:51–4:22:53That seems plausible.
3516. 4:22:53–4:22:54Aside.
3517. 4:22:54–4:22:55Thank heaven.
3518. 4:22:55–4:22:57I breathe again.
3519. 4:22:57–4:22:58Hooray.
3520. 4:22:58–4:23:03Upon whom does the conduct of this case depend?
3521. 4:23:03–4:23:06The case has a twofold aspect.
3522. 4:23:06–4:23:08How so?
3523. 4:23:08–4:23:11We have to consider the allegations.
3524. 4:23:11–4:23:13Then the facts.
3525. 4:23:13–4:23:19Now the investigation of the allegations depends upon plaintiff and defendant.
3526. 4:23:19–4:23:25But the investigation of the facts must be carried out by the wisdom of the judge.
3527. 4:23:25–4:23:31Then the conduct of the case depends upon the presence of Vasantasina's mother.
3528. 4:23:31–4:23:32Precisely.
3529. 4:23:32–4:23:42My good Beedle, summon Verzanticina's mother without, however, giving her cause for anxiety.
3530. 4:23:42–4:23:48Yes, Your Honor, he goes out and returns with the mother of the courtesan.
3531. 4:23:48–4:23:51Follow me, Madam.
3532. 4:23:51–4:23:55My daughter went to the house of a friend to enjoy her youth.
3533. 4:23:55–4:24:01But now comes this gentleman, long life to him, and says, come.
3534. 4:24:01–4:24:11The judge summons you. I find myself quite bewildered. My heart is palpitating. Sir, will you conduct me to the courtroom?
3535. 4:24:11–4:24:19Follow me, madam, they walk about. Here is the courtroom. Pray enter, madam, they enter.
3536. 4:24:19–4:24:25Approaching. Happiness be yours, most worthy gentleman.
3537. 4:24:25–4:24:31My good woman, you are very welcome. Pray be seated.
3538. 4:24:31–4:24:34Thank you. She seats herself.
3539. 4:24:34–4:24:39Abusively. You, re here. Are you, you old board?
3540. 4:24:39–4:24:44Tell me. Are you Vasantasina's mother?
3541. 4:24:44–4:24:45I am.
3542. 4:24:45–4:24:50Wither has Vasantasina gone at this moment.
3543. 4:24:50–4:24:52To the house of a friend.
3544. 4:24:52–4:24:55What is the name of her friend?
3545. 4:24:55–4:25:00Aside. Dear me. Really? This is...

3547. 4:25:02–4:25:04अविचार-विमर्शक रेक।

3553. 4:25:14–4:25:16अविमर्शक रेक।
3554. 4:25:16–4:25:20You incur no fault. Speak.
3555. 4:25:20–4:25:28What? The conduct of the case? If that is so, then listen. Worthy gentleman.
3556. 4:25:28–4:25:33There lives in the merchant's quarter the grandson of the merchant Vinayadatta,
3557. 4:25:33–4:25:38the son of Sagara Datta, a man whose name is a good omen in itself.
3558. 4:25:38–4:25:44That name is Sharadatta. In his house my daughter enjoys her youth.
3559. 4:25:44–4:25:50Did you hear that? Write those words down. My contention is with Charudatta.
3560. 4:25:50–4:25:54It is no sin for Charudatta to be her friend.
3561. 4:25:54–4:26:00The conduct of this case demands the presence of Charudatta.
3562. 4:26:00–4:26:02Exactly.
3563. 4:26:02–4:26:04Dana Dutta.
3564. 4:26:04–4:26:07Write as the first article in the case.
3565. 4:26:07–4:26:12Vasantasina went to the house of Charudatta. But must we
3566. 4:26:12–4:26:21Summon the worthy Charodata also. No. The conduct of the case summons him. Go, my good
3567. 4:26:21–4:26:30beedle. Summon Charodata, but gently. Without haste. Without giving him cause for anxiety.
3568. 4:26:30–4:26:37Respectfully. As it were incidentally, with the words, the judge wishes to see you.
3569. 4:26:37–4:26:44Yes, Your Honor. He goes out, then returns with Charadatta. Follow me, sir.
3570. 4:26:44–4:26:58Thoughtfully, my character and kin are known unto the king who rules our state, and in this summons there is shown a doubt begotten of my wretched fate.
3571. 4:26:58–4:27:01Reflectively. Aside.
3572. 4:27:01–4:27:10Ah! were there those? The man to recognize. Who met me on the road? From bondage freed.
3573. 4:27:10–4:27:17Or did the king? Who sees through cunning spies? Learn that my cart was lent him in his need.
3574. 4:27:17–4:27:25Why should I else be forced to tread the street? Like one accused of crime. My judge to meet.
3575. 4:27:25–4:27:33But why consider thus? I must go to the courtroom. My good beedle, conduct me to the court.
3576. 4:27:33–4:27:36Follow me, sir, they walk about.
3577. 4:27:36–4:27:54Apprehensively. And what means this? Hear how the gloomy raven-horsley croaks, the slaves of justice summon me again. My left-eyed twitchers, these repeated strokes of threatened evil frighten me in pain.
3578. 4:27:54–4:27:58Follow me, sir, gently and without haste.
3579. 4:27:58–4:28:01Walks about and looks before him.
3580. 4:28:01–4:28:06Upon the withered tree, a crow turns to the sun.
3581. 4:28:06–4:28:08His left eye falls on me.
3582. 4:28:08–4:28:12Ah, woe, my doubt is done.
3583. 4:28:12–4:28:15He looks in another direction.
3584. 4:28:15–4:28:18But see, a snake.
3585. 4:28:18–4:28:20His eye is fixed upon me.
3586. 4:28:20–4:28:22And his back.
3587. 4:28:22–4:28:27Flashes like antimony's lustrous black, his long tongue quivers,
3588. 4:28:27–4:28:31Four white fangs appear, his belly swells and coils.
3589. 4:28:31–4:28:38He slumbered here, this prince of serpents, till I crossed his path,
3590. 4:28:38–4:28:41And now he darts upon me in his wrath.
3591. 4:28:41–4:28:44And more than this, I slip.
3592. 4:28:44–4:28:49Although the ground has felt no rain, my left eye,
3593. 4:28:49–4:28:56and my left arm throb again. Another bird is screaming overhead. All bodes are cruel death.
3594. 4:28:56–4:29:03And hope is fled. Surely, the gods will grant that all may yet be well.
3595. 4:29:03–4:29:08Follow me, sir. Here is the courtroom. Pray enter.
3596. 4:29:08–4:29:15Enterzen looks about. How wonderfully splendid is the courtroom. For it seems an ocean. Whose
3597. 4:29:15–4:29:23Water's are the King's advisors. Deep, in thought, as waves and shells it seems to keep.
3598. 4:29:23–4:29:31The attorneys, and as sharks and crocodiles. It has its spies that stand in waiting files.
3599. 4:29:31–4:29:38Its elephants and horses represent. The cruel ocean fish on murder bent. As if with herons
3600. 4:29:38–4:29:45of the sea. It shines, with screaming petty foggers numerous lines, wild in the guise
3601. 4:29:45–4:29:53of serpents. Scribes are creeping, upon its statecraft trodden show. The caught, the likeness
3602. 4:29:53–4:30:00of an ocean still is keeping. To which all harmful cruel beasts resort. Come.
3603. 4:30:00–4:30:30आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि। आजि�

3605. 4:30:38–4:30:45and with kind. The outer form is in a habit sign, with men no less.
3606. 4:30:45–4:30:52My greetings to the officers of justice. Officials, I salute you.
3607. 4:30:52–4:30:59Betraying his agitation, you are very welcome, sir. My good beedle. Give the gentlemen
3608. 4:30:59–4:31:01a seat.
3609. 4:31:01–4:31:07Brings a seat. Here is a seat. Pray be seated, sir. Charudata seats himself.
3610. 4:31:07–4:31:17Angrily. You're here. Are you, you woman murderer? Well, fish is a fine trial. Fish is a just trial
3611. 4:31:17–4:31:25where they give a sheet to fish woman murderer. Hortily. But it's all right. They can give it to him.
3612. 4:31:25–4:31:34Charudatta, have you any attachment or affection or friendship with this lady's daughter?
3613. 4:31:34–4:31:36What lady?
3614. 4:31:36–4:31:41This lady, he indicates Vasantasena's mother.
3615. 4:31:41–4:31:45Rising, madam, I salute you.
3616. 4:31:45–4:31:54Long life to you, my son, aside. So this is Charudatta. My daughter's youth is in good hands.
3617. 4:31:54–4:31:57Sir, is the kutus and your friend?
3618. 4:31:57–4:32:01Sharudatta betrays his embarrassment.
3619. 4:32:01–4:32:04He tries to hide the deed he did.
3620. 4:32:04–4:32:05He lies.
3621. 4:32:05–4:32:08From shame or fear, he murdered her.
3622. 4:32:08–4:32:13Of her got rid, forgold, and thinks the deed is hid.
3623. 4:32:13–4:32:16Not show his master here.
3624. 4:32:16–4:32:18Speak, Sharudatta.
3625. 4:32:18–4:32:20Do not be ashamed.
3626. 4:32:20–4:32:22This is a lawsuit.
3627. 4:32:22–4:32:29In embarrassment, officials, how can I testify that a courtesan is my friend?
3628. 4:32:29–4:32:35But at worst, it is youth that bears the blame, not character.
3629. 4:32:35–4:32:39The case is hard, then banish shame.
3630. 4:32:39–4:32:47Though it oppress your heart, speak truth with fortitude, and aim to set deceit apart.
3631. 4:32:47–4:32:49Do not be embarrassed.
3632. 4:32:49–4:32:53The conduct of the case puts the question,
3633. 4:32:53–4:32:57Officer, with whom have I lawsuit?
3634. 4:32:57–4:32:59Arrogantly, with me.
3635. 4:32:59–4:33:03A lawsuit with you is unendurable.
3636. 4:33:03–4:33:06Well, well, woman murderer,
3637. 4:33:06–4:33:11you murder a woman like Vicentacina who used to wear a hundred gems,
3638. 4:33:11–4:33:15and now you try deceitful deceivings to hide it.
3639. 4:33:15–4:33:18You are a fool.
3640. 4:33:18–4:33:25Enough of him, good Charu Dutta. Speak the truth. Is the courtesan your friend?
3641. 4:33:25–4:33:27She is.
3642. 4:33:27–4:33:31Sir, where is Vasantasina?
3643. 4:33:31–4:33:33She has gone home.
3644. 4:33:33–4:33:38How did she go? When did she go? Who accompanied her?
3645. 4:33:38–4:33:43Aside. Shall I say that she went unobserved?
3646. 4:33:43–4:33:45Speak, sir.
3647. 4:33:45–4:33:49She went home. What more shall I say?
3648. 4:33:49–4:33:53She was enticed into my old garden pushpuck around her,
3649. 4:33:53–4:33:59and was s.h. strangled for her money. Now will you say that she went home?
3650. 4:33:59–4:34:04Man, you are crazy. The very clouds of heaven wet not you.
3651. 4:34:04–4:34:08Your lips are like the blue jays wingtip worn.
3652. 4:34:08–4:34:12Yes, fullers fickle with their speech untrue.
3653. 4:34:12–4:34:16and like the winter lute sluster lawn.
3654. 4:34:16–4:34:21Aside, take the Himalayan hills within your hand
3655. 4:34:21–4:34:25and swim from ocean strand to ocean strand
3656. 4:34:25–4:34:28and hold within your grasp the fleeting wind.
3657. 4:34:28–4:34:32Then may you think that Charodata sinned.
3658. 4:34:32–4:34:36Allowed. This is the noble Charodata.
3659. 4:34:36–4:34:39How could he commit this crime?
3660. 4:34:39–4:34:46He repeats the verse, accountants like his, page 141.
3661. 4:34:46–4:34:50Why fish partiality in a law she would?
3662. 4:34:50–4:34:56Away! You fool! Illiterate! You gloss the sacred law,
3663. 4:34:56–4:35:00and still your tongue uninjured find the myth
3664. 4:35:00–4:35:06तब दे सचन विद स्टवास्ट आई यू सोझ। आद नाट श्टब वेश्ट्चन ब्लाइन्द।
3665. 4:35:06–4:35:12You thrust your hand into the blazing fire and draw it forth, unscathed and sound.
3666. 4:35:13–4:35:19Drag Charudatta's virtue in the mire, nor sink beneath this yawning ground.
3667. 4:35:20–4:35:23How could the noble Charudatta commit a crime?
3668. 4:35:23–4:35:29Of all the riches of the mighty sea, only the swelling waters now are left.
3669. 4:35:29–4:35:38because, without consideration, he for others good, himself of all has reft, and should this
3670. 4:35:38–4:35:47high-sold man, this storehouse where all gems of virtue gather and unite, for Luca's sake,
3671. 4:35:47–4:35:54so foul a trespass dare, that in it even his foe could not delight.
3672. 4:35:54–4:36:00scoundrel. When the golden casket that was left with him as a pledge was stolen by thieves
3673. 4:36:00–4:36:06at night, he gave in place of it a pearl necklace that was the pride of the Four Seas. And he
3674. 4:36:06–4:36:16should now, for a mere trifle, for her money, do this sin. Oh! my child! Come back to me!
3675. 4:36:16–4:36:20My daughter! She weeps!
3676. 4:36:20–4:36:28Charidata. Did she go on foot or in a bullet cart? I did not see her when she went. Therefore
3677. 4:36:28–4:36:35I do not know whether she went on foot or in a bullet cart.
3678. 4:36:35–4:36:41Enter Veracca in Anger. My anger was so prodded to the quick. By that
3679. 4:36:41–4:36:49dishonoring, insulting kick. And so I brooded till at last the night. Unwilling yielded
3680. 4:36:49–4:36:56to the dawning light. So now I will go to the courtroom. He enters. May happiness be
3681. 4:36:56–4:36:59the lot of these honorable gentlemen.
3682. 4:36:59–4:37:08Ah, it is Varaka, the captain of the guard. Varaka, what is the purpose of your coming?
3683. 4:37:08–4:37:15Well, I was looking for Ayaka. In all the excitement about his escape from prison,
3684. 4:37:15–4:37:21I had my suspicions about a covered bullet cart that was coming and wanted to look in.
3685. 4:37:21–4:37:24You, they made one inspection.
3686. 4:37:24–4:37:28Man, I must make another, said I.
3687. 4:37:28–4:37:32And then I was kicked by the highly respectable Chandanaka.
3688. 4:37:32–4:37:34You have heard the matter.
3689. 4:37:34–4:37:38Gentlemen, the rest is your affair.
3690. 4:37:38–4:37:43My good man, do you know to whom the bullet cart belonged?
3691. 4:37:43–4:37:50After this gentleman here, Charudatta and the driver said that Visantasina was in it
3692. 4:37:50–4:37:56and was on her way to have a good time in the old garden pushpark around her.
3693. 4:37:56–4:37:59Lished into that, too.
3694. 4:37:59–4:38:06This moon, alas, though spotless bright, is now eclipsed and robbed of light.
3695. 4:38:06–4:38:08The bank is fallen.
3696. 4:38:08–4:38:14The waves appear, befold, that once were bright and clear.
3697. 4:38:14–4:38:19Viraka, we will investigate your case here later.
3698. 4:38:19–4:38:22Mount the horse that stands before the courtroom door.
3699. 4:38:22–4:38:30Go to the garden pushpakaranda and see whether a woman has perished there or not.
3700. 4:38:30–4:38:32Yes, sir.
3701. 4:38:32–4:38:35He goes out, then returns.
3702. 4:38:35–4:38:42I have been there, and I saw the body of a woman, torn by wild beasts.
3703. 4:38:42–4:38:47How do you know that it was the body of a woman, that I perceived from the traces of
3704. 4:38:47–4:38:51hair and arms and hands and feet?
3705. 4:38:51–4:38:56Alas for the difficulties which are caused by the actions of men.
3706. 4:38:56–4:39:02The more one may apply his skill, the harder is the matter still.
3707. 4:39:02–4:39:10are indeed the law's demands. Yet judgment insecurely stands, as some poor cow on shifting
3708. 4:39:10–4:39:17sands. Aside, as bees, when flowers begin to blow,
3709. 4:39:17–4:39:24gather to seep the honey. So, when man is marked by a dwears fate, must fortunes enter
3710. 4:39:24–4:39:30every gate. Noble Charodata, speak truth. A mean and
3711. 4:39:30–4:39:38and jealous creature. Passion blind, sets all his soul, some fatal means to find. To slay
3712. 4:39:38–4:39:46the man he envies. Shall his lies, by evil nature prompted, win the prize? No, he is
3713. 4:39:46–4:39:54unregarded by the wise. And more than this, the creeper's beauty would I never blight.
3714. 4:39:54–4:39:59luck its flowers, should I not be afraid to see her here so lovely
3715. 4:40:00–4:40:30विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल विश्विल वि
3716. 4:40:30–4:40:36what you are doing. He leaves his seat and sits on the floor.
3717. 4:40:36–4:40:43Dancing about gleefully, aside, fine, the shin that I did falls on another man's head.
3718. 4:40:43–4:40:50Show I, I'll sit where Charudatta was. He does so. Look at me, Charudatta, and confess
3719. 4:40:50–4:40:53that you murdered her.
3720. 4:40:53–4:41:03A mean and jealous creature, passion blind, sets all his soul, some fatal means to find,
3721. 4:41:03–4:41:05to slay the man he envies.
3722. 4:41:05–4:41:11Shall his lies, by evil nature prompted, win the prize?
3723. 4:41:11–4:41:16No, he is unregarded by the wise.
3724. 4:41:16–4:41:17Sighing.
3725. 4:41:17–4:41:19Aside.
3726. 4:41:19–4:41:21My friend, Maitreya.
3727. 4:41:21–4:41:30Oh! This cruel blow! My wife! Thou issue of a spotless strain! My Rojasena! Here am I!
3728. 4:41:30–4:41:38Laid low! By sternest fate! And thou? Thou dost not know! That all thy childish games are
3729. 4:41:38–4:41:44played in vain! Thou playest! Heedless of another's pain!
3730. 4:41:44–4:41:50But, maitreya, I sent to Vasantasena, That he might bring me tidings of her,
3731. 4:41:50–4:41:53and might restore the jewels which she gave my child.
3732. 4:41:53–4:41:56To buy him a toy cart.
3733. 4:41:56–4:41:59Why then does he linger?
3734. 4:41:59–4:42:02Enter Maitreya with the gems.
3735. 4:42:02–4:42:09Charidata bade me go to Vasantasena to return her jewels, and he said to me, Maitreya,
3736. 4:42:09–4:42:14Vasantasena adorned my dear Roasena with her own jewels, and sent him thus to his
3737. 4:42:14–4:42:15mother.
3738. 4:42:15–4:42:18It was fitting that she should give him the jewels.
3739. 4:42:18–4:42:20But not that we should receive them.
3740. 4:42:20–4:42:22Therefore restore them to her.
3741. 4:42:22–4:42:25So now I will go to Vasantasina's house.
3742. 4:42:25–4:42:30He walks about and looks around, then speaks to a person behind the scenes.
3743. 4:42:30–4:42:32Ah, it is Master Rebula.
3744. 4:42:32–4:42:37Oh, Master Rebula, why do you seem so exceedingly troubled?
3745. 4:42:37–4:42:38He listens.
3746. 4:42:38–4:42:44What, do you mean to say that my dear friend Charadatta has been summoned to court?
3747. 4:42:44–4:42:46That can hardly be an insignificant matter.
3748. 4:42:46–4:42:48He reflects.
3749. 4:42:48–4:42:50I will go to Vasantasina's house later.
3750. 4:42:50–4:42:53But now I will go to the courtroom.
3751. 4:42:53–4:42:55He walks about and looks around.
3752. 4:42:55–4:42:56Here is the courtroom.
3753. 4:42:56–4:42:58I will go in at once.
3754. 4:42:58–4:42:59He enters.
3755. 4:42:59–4:43:02May happiness be the lot of the magistrates.
3756. 4:43:02–4:43:04Where is my friend?
3757. 4:43:04–4:43:06Here.
3758. 4:43:06–4:43:09My friend, I wish you happiness.
3759. 4:43:09–4:43:11It will be mine.
3760. 4:43:11–4:43:13And peace.
3761. 4:43:13–4:43:15That too will be mine.
3762. 4:43:15–4:43:20My friend, why do you seem so exceedingly troubled? And why were you summoned?
3763. 4:43:21–4:43:27My friend, a scoundrel I, who bear the blame, nor seek in heaven to be blessed.
3764. 4:43:28–4:43:33A maid, or goddess, T is the same but he will say the rest.
3765. 4:43:34–4:43:35What? What?
3766. 4:43:35–4:43:38Whispers, that is it.
3767. 4:43:38–4:43:39Who says that?
3768. 4:43:39–4:43:47Indicating Santsthanaka, this poor fellow is the instrument that fate uses to accuse me.
3769. 4:43:47–4:43:52Aside to Charodata, why don't you simply say that she went home?
3770. 4:43:52–4:43:59Though I say it, it is not believed, so unfortunate is my condition.
3771. 4:43:59–4:44:07But, gentlemen, he adorned the city of Ujaini with mansions, cloisters, parks, temples,
3772. 4:44:07–4:44:13pools, and fountains, and he should be mad enough to commit such a crime, and for a mere trifle?
3773. 4:44:14–4:44:20Wrathfully, you offspring of a loose wench. You brother-in-law of the king.
3774. 4:44:20–4:44:27Sans Thanaka, you libertine, you slanderer, you buffoon, you gilded monkey, say it before me,
3775. 4:44:27–4:44:32This friend of mine doesn't even draw a flowering jasmine creeper to himself.
3776. 4:44:32–4:44:38To gather the blossoms, for fear that a twig might perhaps be injured. How should he commit a crime
3777. 4:44:38–4:44:46like this? Which heaven and earth call a cursed? Just wait, you son of a bod. Wait till I split
3778. 4:44:46–4:44:50your head into a hundred pieces with this staff of mine. As crooked as your heart.
3779. 4:44:50–4:44:59angrily, lished into that, gentlemen, I have a quarrel, or a lawsuit, with Charudatta,
3780. 4:45:00–4:45:30विचार-विमर्डिंग आप विचार-विमर्डिंग आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आ� आप आप आप आप आप
3781. 4:45:30–4:45:35Look, gentlemen, look, these are the poor girl's jewels.
3782. 4:45:35–4:45:41Pointing to Charudatta for a trifle like fish he murdered her and killed her too.
3783. 4:45:41–4:45:45The magistrates all bow their heads.
3784. 4:45:45–4:45:50Aside to Maitreya, tea is thus my fate would vent its gall,
3785. 4:45:50–4:45:52that at this moment they should fall.
3786. 4:45:52–4:45:56These gems, and with them, I...
3787. 4:45:56–4:45:59But why don't you simply tell the truth?
3788. 4:45:59–4:46:03My friend, the king perceives with blinded eye,
3789. 4:46:03–4:46:06Nor on the truth that I will bend,
3790. 4:46:06–4:46:09Though telling wall, I cannot fly,
3791. 4:46:09–4:46:11A wretched and inglorious end.
3792. 4:46:12–4:46:18Alas! Alas! With Mars strives Jupiter and dies,
3793. 4:46:18–4:46:21Beside them both there seems to rise,
3794. 4:46:21–4:46:24A comet planet in the skies.
3795. 4:46:25–4:46:27Looking at the casket,
3796. 4:46:27–4:46:29Tuva Santacena's mother,
3797. 4:46:29–4:46:37Madam, pray examine this golden casket attentively to see whether it be the same or not.
3798. 4:46:37–4:46:42Examining the casket. It is similar, but not the same.
3799. 4:46:42–4:46:50Oh, you old board. You can fish it with your eyes and deny it with your lips.
3800. 4:46:50–4:46:53Away, you scoundrel.
3801. 4:46:53–4:46:57Speak carefully. Is it the same or not?
3802. 4:46:57–4:47:03Sir, the craftsman's skill captivates the eye. But it is not the same.
3803. 4:47:03–4:47:07My good woman, do you know these jewels?
3804. 4:47:07–4:47:16No, I said, no. I don't recognize them. But perhaps they were made by the same craftsman.
3805. 4:47:16–4:47:22Guildwarden. See, gems often seem alike in many ways.
3806. 4:47:22–4:47:29When the artist's mind on form and beauty plays, for craftsmen imitate what they have seen
3807. 4:47:29–4:47:33and skillful hands remake what once has been.
3808. 4:47:33–4:47:37Do these jewels belong to Charodata?
3809. 4:47:37–4:47:38Never.
3810. 4:47:38–4:47:40To whom then?
3811. 4:47:40–4:47:43To this lady's daughter.
3812. 4:47:43–4:47:45How did she lose them?
3813. 4:47:45–4:47:50She lost them. Yes, so much is true.
3814. 4:47:50–4:47:58Charudatta, speak the truth in this matter, for you must remember, truth brings well-being
3815. 4:47:58–4:48:08in its train. Through speaking truth, no evils rise. Truth, precious syllable, refrain from
3816. 4:48:08–4:48:11hiding truth in lies.
3817. 4:48:11–4:48:19The jewels, the jewels. I do not know, but I do know that they were taken from my house.
3818. 4:48:19–4:48:26you take her into the garden and murder her. And now you hide it by tricky trickiness."
3819. 4:48:26–4:48:34Noble Charodata. Speak the truth. Merciless lashes wait to smite. This moment on thy tender
3820. 4:48:34–4:48:42flesh. And we, we can but think it right. Of seamless scythe I boast my birth. And
3821. 4:48:42–4:48:49Sin in me was never found. Yet if suspicion deents my worth, what boots it though my heart
3822. 4:48:49–4:48:52be sound?
3823. 4:48:52–4:49:00Aside. And yet I know not what to do with life. So I be robbed of Vasantasina. Allowed.
3824. 4:49:00–4:49:04Ah! Why waste words?
3825. 4:49:04–4:49:11A scoundrel eye. Who bear the blame? Nor think of earth. Nor heaven blessed. That
3826. 4:49:11–4:49:16Sweetest maid. In passion's flame, but he will say the rest.
3827. 4:49:16–4:49:21Killed her. Come, you say it too. I killed her.
3828. 4:49:21–4:49:23You have said it.
3829. 4:49:23–4:49:30Lichten, my mashdas. Lichten. He murdered her. No one but him.
3830. 4:49:30–4:49:35Doubt is over. Let punishment be inflicted on the body of fish poor charudata.
3831. 4:49:35–4:49:41Beedle, we must do as the king's brother-in-law says.
3832. 4:49:41–4:49:46Guardsmen, lay hold on this chariodata.
3833. 4:49:46–4:49:48The guardsmen do so.
3834. 4:49:48–4:49:50Be merciful.
3835. 4:49:50–4:49:51Good gentlemen.
3836. 4:49:51–4:49:53Be merciful.
3837. 4:49:53–4:49:56She repeats what she had said before.
3838. 4:49:56–4:49:57Beginning.
3839. 4:49:57–4:49:59When the golden casket.
3840. 4:49:59–4:50:00Page 4.
3841. 4:50:00–4:50:04विचार-विमर्चक रेक। विचार-विमर्चक रेक।
3842. 4:50:04–4:50:08विचार-विमर्चक रेक। विचार-विमर्चक रेक।
3843. 4:50:08–4:50:12विचार-विमर्चक रेक। विचार-विमर्चक रेक।
3844. 4:50:12–4:50:16विचार-विमर्चक रेक। विमर्चक रेक।
3845. 4:50:16–4:50:20विचार-विमर्चक रेक। विमर्चक रेक।
3846. 4:50:30–4:50:34Oh, my child, my son! Exit weeping!
3847. 4:50:34–4:50:39Aside! Aye, vey done shomething worthy of my shelf.
3848. 4:50:39–4:50:42Now aye, I'll go. Exit!
3849. 4:50:42–4:50:47Noble Charudatta! The decision lies with us.
3850. 4:50:47–4:50:53Yes. Your honour. He goes out, then reenters in tears.
3851. 4:50:53–4:51:00Oh, sirs, I was with the king. And King Palakka says, and as much as he killed Vasantacina
3852. 4:51:00–4:51:06for such a trifle, these same jewels shall be hung about his neck. The drum shall be
3853. 4:51:06–4:51:12beaten. He shall be conducted to the southern burying ground. And they're impaled, and
3854. 4:51:12–4:51:17whoever else shall commit such a crime shall be punished with the like dreadful doom."
3855. 4:51:17–4:51:22Oh, how wanton is this act of King Palakka!
3856. 4:51:22–4:51:27Nevertheless, although his counsellors may plunge a king
3857. 4:51:27–4:51:30into injustice, danger is great.
3858. 4:51:30–4:51:33Yet he will reap the woe in suffering.
3859. 4:51:33–4:51:36And tea is a righteous fate.
3860. 4:51:36–4:51:40And more than this, they who power the king's true bent.
3861. 4:51:40–4:51:44The white crows part who play, have slain their thousands
3862. 4:51:44–4:51:53innocent. And slay, and slay, and slay, My friend Maitreya, go, greet the mother of My
3863. 4:51:53–4:52:00son in My name for the last time. And keep My son Rojasena free from harm.
3864. 4:52:00–4:52:04When the root is cut away, how can the tree be saved?
3865. 4:52:04–4:52:12No, not so. When man departs to worlds above. In living sun yet live earth he.
3866. 4:52:12–4:52:17I do not want Roha Sina love, no less than that thou gavest me.
3867. 4:52:17–4:52:24Oh, my friend, I will prove myself your friend by continuing the life that you leave unfinished.
3868. 4:52:24–4:52:28And let me see Roha Sina for a single moment.
3869. 4:52:28–4:52:31I will, it is but fitting.
3870. 4:52:31–4:52:38My good Beedle, remove this man. The Beedle does so. Who is there?
3871. 4:52:38–4:52:44Let the headsmen receive their orders. The guardsmen loose their hold on Charodata.
3872. 4:52:45–4:52:49And all of them go out. Come with me, sir.
3873. 4:52:50–4:53:00Monfily repeats the verse, page 146. Beginning, my friend Maitreya. Then, as if speaking to one
3874. 4:53:00–4:53:09not present. If you had proved my conduct by the fire, by water, poison, scales, and
3875. 4:53:09–4:53:15thus had known, that I deserved that sauce should bite my bone. My brahmin's frame,
3876. 4:53:15–4:53:24more could I not desire. You trust a foreman, slay me thus, tea is well, with sons, and
3877. 4:53:24–4:53:35Sunsons, now you plunge to hell. I come, I come, exiant omnus.
3878. 4:53:35–4:53:43Enter Charodata, accompanied by two headsmen. Then think no longer of the pain. In just
3879. 4:53:43–4:53:53a second you, LLB slain. We understand the fashions new. To feta you and kill you too.
3880. 4:53:53–4:53:59In shopping heads we never fail, nor when the victim we impale.
3881. 4:53:59–4:54:07Out of the way, gentlemen, out of the way, this is the noble Charudatta, the oleander
3882. 4:54:07–4:54:09on his brow.
3883. 4:54:09–4:54:17In headsman's hands you see him now, like a lamp whose oil runs nearly dry.
3884. 4:54:17–4:54:19His light fades gently.
3885. 4:54:19–4:54:21Eer it die.
3886. 4:54:21–4:54:28Gloomily, my body wet by teardrops falling, Falling, my limbs polluted by the clinging
3887. 4:54:28–4:54:35mud, Flowers from the graveyard torn, My wreath appalling, for ghastly sacrifice
3888. 4:54:35–4:54:41Horsesraven scalling, And for the fragrant incense of my blood.
3889. 4:54:41–4:54:49Out of the way, gentlemen, Out of the way, Why gaze upon the good man so?
3890. 4:54:49–4:54:52The axe of death soon lays him low.
3891. 4:54:52–4:54:55Yet good men once sought shelter free.
3892. 4:54:55–4:54:57Like birds?
3893. 4:54:57–4:54:59Upon this kindly tree.
3894. 4:54:59–4:55:00Come.
3895. 4:55:00–4:55:03शरीडदाता, कम।
3896. 4:55:03–4:55:06इन कलकूलबल आदवेश अफ्य।
3897. 4:55:06–4:55:13destiny. That I am come to such a plight. Red marks of hands in sandal paste. O'er all
3898. 4:55:13–4:55:21my body have been placed. The man, with meal and powder strewn, is now to beast of offering
3899. 4:55:21–4:55:23grown.
3900. 4:55:23–4:55:31He gazes intently before him. I'll ask for human differences, mournfully.
3901. 4:55:31–4:55:38For when they see the fate that I must brave, With tears for deaths pour victim freely given.
3902. 4:55:38–4:55:45The citizens cry, shame, yet cannot save, Can only pray that I attain to heaven.
3903. 4:55:45–4:55:48Out of the way, gentlemen!
3904. 4:55:48–4:55:50Out of the way!
3905. 4:55:50–4:55:52Why do you gaze upon him?
3906. 4:55:52–4:55:59God Indra moving through the sky, The colving cow, the falling star, the good
3907. 4:55:59–4:56:05Good man, when he needs must die, these four behold not from afar.
3908. 4:56:05–4:56:16Look a hinder, look man, while he, of citizens the best, goes to his death at fates behest.
3909. 4:56:16–4:56:19Does heaven thus weep that he must die?
3910. 4:56:19–4:56:23Does lightning paint the cloudless sky?
3911. 4:56:23–4:56:29Go ha, man, the heaven weeps not that he must die.
3912. 4:56:29–4:56:36lightning paints the cloudless sky, yet streams are falling constantly from many a woman's
3913. 4:56:36–4:56:45clouded eye. And again, while this poor victim to his death is led, no man nor woman here
3914. 4:56:45–4:56:53but sorely weeps, and so the dust by countless tear drops fed, thus peacefully upon the
3915. 4:56:53–4:56:59highway sleeps. Gaze is intently, mournfully, these women,
3916. 4:56:59–4:57:07in their palaces who stay. From half-shut windows peering. Thus lament, alas for Charuditta,
3917. 4:57:07–4:57:14woe the day, quote, and petty streaming eyes on me are bent.
3918. 4:57:14–4:57:22Come, Charudatta, come! Here is the place of proclamation. Beat the drum and proclaim
3919. 4:57:22–4:57:31the sentence. Listen, good people, listen. This is the noble Charudatta, son of Sagara
3920. 4:57:31–4:57:40Datta, and grandson of the merchant Vinayadatta. This male factor enticed the courtesan Vasantasina
3921. 4:57:40–4:57:48into the deserted old garden Pushpakaranda, and for a mere trifle murdered her by strangling.
3922. 4:57:48–4:57:53He was taken with the booty and confessed his guilt.
3923. 4:57:53–4:57:59Therefore are we under orders from King Palakka to execute him, and if any other commits such
3924. 4:57:59–4:58:04a crime, a curse in this world and the next.
3925. 4:58:04–4:58:08Him too King Palakka condemns to the like punishment.
3926. 4:58:08–4:58:17Despondently, aside, by hundred sacrifices purified, my radiant name was once proclaimed
3927. 4:58:17–4:58:26by countless altars side, and knew no blame, now comes my hour of death, and evil men,
3928. 4:58:26–4:58:34of base of fame, in public spots proclaim it once again, but linked with shame.
3929. 4:58:34–4:58:37He looks up and stops his ears.
3930. 4:58:37–4:58:38Vasantacena.
3931. 4:58:38–4:58:41Oh, my beloved.
3932. 4:58:41–4:58:43From thy dear lips.
3933. 4:58:43–4:58:49That vied with corals red, Betraying teeth more bright than moonbeams fair.
3934. 4:58:49–4:58:52My soul with heaven's nectar once was fed.
3935. 4:58:52–4:58:54How can I?
3936. 4:58:54–4:58:55Helpless.
3937. 4:58:55–4:58:57Taste that poisoned dread.
3938. 4:58:57–4:59:01To drink shame's poisoned cup, How can I bear?
3939. 4:59:01–4:59:09Out of the way, gentlemen, out of the way, this treasure house, with pearls of virtue
3940. 4:59:09–4:59:15stored, this bridge for good men o'er misfortunes river.
3941. 4:59:15–4:59:23This gem now robbed of all its golden horde, departs our town today, departs forever, and
3942. 4:59:23–4:59:24again?
3943. 4:59:24–4:59:27Whom fortune favours?
3944. 4:59:27–4:59:36that all the world is kind, whose happy days are ended, are rarely thus befriended.
3945. 4:59:36–4:59:43Looks about him, their faces with their garments him now hiding. They stand afar, whom once
3946. 4:59:43–4:59:50I counted friends. Even foes have smiles for men with fortune-biding. But friends prove
3947. 4:59:50–4:59:54faithless when good fortune ends.
3948. 4:59:54–4:59:56They are out of the way.
3949. 4:59:56–4:59:58The street is cleared.

3952. 5:00:30–5:00:32Oh, my friend.
3953. 5:00:32–5:00:37Listen, Monfily, you are a leader in your own caste.
3954. 5:00:37–5:00:40I would beg a favour at your hands.
3955. 5:00:40–5:00:44From our hands you would receive a favour.
3956. 5:00:44–5:00:51Heaven forbid, yet a headsman is neither so wanton nor so cruel as King Palika.
3957. 5:00:51–5:00:54That I may be happy in the other world.
3958. 5:00:54–5:00:57I ask to see the face of my son.
3959. 5:00:57–5:01:04son. So be it. My father. Oh, my father.
3960. 5:01:04–5:01:09Charudatta hears the words, and mournfully repeats his request.
3961. 5:01:09–5:01:17Citizens, make way a moment. Let the noble Charudatta look upon the face of his son,
3962. 5:01:17–5:01:25turning to the back of the stage. This way, sir. Come on, little boy.
3963. 5:01:25–5:01:32to Maitreya, with Rohasena. Make haste, my boy, make haste. Your father
3964. 5:01:32–5:01:41is being led to his death. My father, oh, my father. Oh, my friend, where must I behold
3965. 5:01:41–5:01:51you now? Perceives his son and his friend. Alas, my son, alas, Maitreya, monfuly, ah,
3966. 5:01:51–5:01:57Go is me, long, too long, shall I thirst in vain.
3967. 5:01:57–5:02:02Through all my sojourn dread, this vessel small will not contain.
3968. 5:02:02–5:02:06The water for the dead, what may I give my son?
3969. 5:02:06–5:02:11He looks at himself, and perceives the sacrificial chord.
3970. 5:02:11–5:02:14Ah, this at least is mine.
3971. 5:02:14–5:02:20The precious chord that Brahmins hold, is unadorned with pearls and gold.
3972. 5:02:20–5:02:28God therewith, be sacrifice to God's above and Father's hold.
3973. 5:02:28–5:02:32He gives Rohasena the cord.
3974. 5:02:32–5:02:41Come, Charudatta, come man, man, do you name the noble Charudatta's name and forget the
3975. 5:02:41–5:02:51title. Remember, in happy hours, in death, by night, by day, roving as free as a yet unbroken
3976. 5:02:51–5:03:01cult. Fate wanders on her unrestricted way, and again, life will depart his body soon.
3977. 5:03:01–5:03:07Shall our reproaches bow his head, although eclipse may seize the moon. We worship while
3978. 5:03:07–5:03:09it seems but dead.
3979. 5:03:09–5:03:14Oh, Headsman, where are you lading my father?
3980. 5:03:14–5:03:18My darling, about my neck my needs must wear.
3981. 5:03:18–5:03:23The oley under wreath, upon my shoulder I must bear.
3982. 5:03:23–5:03:30The stake, and in my heart the care, of near approaching death, I go to day to meet Adastad's
3983. 5:03:30–5:03:31ending.
3984. 5:03:31–5:03:36A victim, at the fatal altar bending.
3985. 5:03:36–5:03:44My boy, not we the headsmen are, though born of headsmen race, thy father's life whom are
3986. 5:03:44–5:03:47these, these are headsmen base.
3987. 5:03:47–5:03:51Then why do you murder my father?
3988. 5:03:51–5:03:52Bless you.
3989. 5:03:52–5:03:57T is the king's orders must bear the blame, not we.
3990. 5:03:57–5:04:00Kill me, and let father go free.
3991. 5:04:00–5:04:02Bless you.
3992. 5:04:02–5:04:05May you live long for saying that.
3993. 5:04:05–5:04:12carefully embracing his son, this treasure, love, this taste of heaven. To rich and poor
3994. 5:04:12–5:04:20alike is given, then sandal better, or than balm, to soothe the heart and give it calm.
3995. 5:04:20–5:04:27About my neck my needs must wear. The oly under wreath, upon my shoulder I must bear.
3996. 5:04:27–5:04:33The stake, and in my heart the care, of near approaching death, I go to date to meet
3997. 5:04:33–5:04:40Dastard's ending. Awake, Tim. Add the fatal altar bending.
3998. 5:04:40–5:04:44He looks about. Aside.
3999. 5:04:44–5:04:52Their faces with their garments hem now hiding. They stand afar. Whom once I counted friends.
4000. 5:04:52–5:04:54Even foes have smiles.
4001. 5:04:54–5:04:59My good men, let my dear friend Charada go free, and kill me instead.

4004. 5:05:36–5:05:44why gaze upon the good man so? When shame his living hope lays low, the cord was broken
4005. 5:05:44–5:05:48at the well, and down the golden pitcher fell.
4006. 5:05:48–5:05:56Monfily, from thy dear lips, that wide with corals red, but train teeth more bright than
4007. 5:05:56–5:06:04moonbeams fair. My soul with heaven's nectar once was fed. How can I, helpless, taste that
4008. 5:06:04–5:06:10poison dread, to drink shame's poisoned cup, how can I bear?
4009. 5:06:10–5:06:15Proclaim the sentence again, man, go hard does so.
4010. 5:06:15–5:06:23So lowly fallen, till shame my virtues blur. Till such an ending seem not lost. But
4011. 5:06:23–5:06:30gain yet o'er my heart there creeps a saddening pain. To hear them cry abroad, you murdered
4012. 5:06:30–5:06:31her."
4013. 5:06:31–5:06:39Enter Stavaraka, fettered, in the palace tower.
4014. 5:06:39–5:06:45After listening to the proclamation, in distress, what? The innocent Charodata is being put
4015. 5:06:45–5:06:52to death. And my master has thrown me into chains. Well, I must shout to them. Listen.
4016. 5:06:52–5:07:00Good gentleman. Listen. It was I. Wretch that I am. Who carried Vasantasina to the old garden
4017. 5:07:00–5:07:08Pushpaka Randa? Because she mistook my bullet cart for another. And then my master, Sansternaca,
4018. 5:07:08–5:07:14found that she would not love him. And it was he. Not this gentleman. Who murdered
4019. 5:07:14–5:07:18her by strangling, but they are so far away that no one hears me.
4020. 5:07:18–5:07:20What shall I do?
4021. 5:07:20–5:07:22Shall I cast myself down?"
4022. 5:07:22–5:07:23He reflects.
4023. 5:07:23–5:07:28If I do, then the noble Charodata will not be put to death.
4024. 5:07:28–5:07:29Yes!
4025. 5:07:29–5:07:33Through this broken window I will throw myself down from the palace tower.
4026. 5:07:33–5:07:39Better that I should meet my end than that the noble Charodata should perish.
4027. 5:07:39–5:07:45history of life for noble youths. And if I die in such a cause, I have attained heaven.
4028. 5:07:45–5:07:52He throws himself down. Wonderful! I did not meet my end. And my fetters are broken. So
4029. 5:07:52–5:07:58I will follow the sound of the headsman's voices. He discovers the headsman and hastens
4030. 5:07:58–5:08:04forward. Headsman! Headsman! Make way!
4031. 5:08:04–5:08:06For whom shall we make way?
4032. 5:08:06–5:08:14Listen! Good gentlemen! Listen! It was I, wretch that I am, who carried Vasantasina to the old
4033. 5:08:14–5:08:21garden pushpacker Randa, because she mistook my bullet cart for another. And then my master,
4034. 5:08:21–5:08:28Sansternaka, found that she would not love him. And it was he, not this gentleman,
4035. 5:08:28–5:08:30who murdered her by strangling.
4036. 5:08:30–5:08:36Thank heaven, but who thus gladdens this my latest mourn?
4037. 5:08:36–5:08:39When in time snare I struggle all for long.
4038. 5:08:39–5:08:42A streaming cloud above the rainless corn?
4039. 5:08:42–5:08:46Listen, do you hear what I say?
4040. 5:08:46–5:08:52Death have I never feared, but blackened fame, my death were welcome, coming free from
4041. 5:08:52–5:08:57shame, as were a sun, new born to bear my name.
4042. 5:08:57–5:09:05And again, that small, weak fool, whom I have never hated, stained me with sin wherewith
4043. 5:09:05–5:09:11himself was mated, an arrow, with most deadly poison baited.
4044. 5:09:11–5:09:15Are you telling the truth, Stavaraka?
4045. 5:09:15–5:09:16I am.
4046. 5:09:16–5:09:19And to keep me from telling anybody.
4047. 5:09:19–5:09:25He cast me into chains, and imprisoned me in the tower of his palace.
4048. 5:09:25–5:09:34I ate a shore and bit a dish of meat and herbs and soup and fish.
4049. 5:09:34–5:09:42I tried at home my tongue to tickle with rice cakes plain and rice with treacle.
4050. 5:09:42–5:09:43He listens.
4051. 5:09:43–5:09:45The headsman's voices.
4052. 5:09:45–5:09:48They sound like a broken brass cymbal.
4053. 5:09:48–5:09:54I hear the music of the fatal drum and the kettle drums and show I suppose that
4054. 5:09:54–5:09:56that poor man.
4055. 5:09:56–5:10:00Sharidata is being led to the place of execution.

4058. 5:10:37–5:10:45a crowd there is to she that poor man led to his death. What would it be when an Arishhtakrat,
4059. 5:10:45–5:10:52a big man like me, was being led to his death? He gazes. Look. There he goes toward the
4060. 5:10:52–5:10:59a shouth, adorned like a young steer. But why was the proclamation made near my palace
4061. 5:10:59–5:11:08tower? And why was it stopped? He looks about. Why? My slave Stavaraka is gone.
4062. 5:11:08–5:11:152. I hope he hasn't run away and betrayed the secret. I must go and look for him. He
4063. 5:11:15–5:11:19descends and approaches the crowd.
4064. 5:11:19–5:11:23covers him. There he comes. Good masters.
4065. 5:11:23–5:11:32Give way. Make room. And shut the door. Be silent. And say nothing more. Here comes a mad
4066. 5:11:32–5:11:38ball through the press. Whose horns are sharp with wickedness?
4067. 5:11:38–5:11:48Come, come. Make way. He approaches. Stavarica, my little Sean, my slave. Come, let, s go
4068. 5:11:48–5:12:00You scoundrel! Are you not content with the murder of Vasanticina? Must you try now to murder the noble Charodata? That tree of life to all who loved him.
4069. 5:12:00–5:12:05I am beautiful as a pot of jewels. I kill no woman.
4070. 5:12:05–5:12:09Oho! You murdered her, not the noble Charodata.
4071. 5:12:09–5:12:11Who shays that?
4072. 5:12:11–5:12:15Pointing to Staviraka, this honest man.
4073. 5:12:15–5:12:43Fearfully, aside, merciful heavens, why did ent I chain that slave Stavarica fasht? Why, he was a witness of my crime. He reflects. I, I'll do it, Thishway. Allowed, lies, lies. Good gentlemen, why, I caught the slave stealing gold, and I pounded him, and murdered him, and put him in chains.
4074. 5:12:43–5:12:51He hates me. What he shays can't be true. He secretly hands Stavarica a bracelet and whispers,
4075. 5:12:51–5:12:59Stavarica, my little Sean, my slave, take fish and shay shome thing different.
4076. 5:12:59–5:13:06Take that. Look, gentlemen. Look, why? He is trying to bribe me with gold.
4077. 5:13:06–5:13:12Snatches the bracelet from him. That is the gold that I put him in chains for.
4078. 5:13:12–5:13:14Angrily. Look here.
4079. 5:13:14–5:13:18Headsmen. I put him in charge of my gold chest.
4080. 5:13:18–5:13:23And when he turned thief, I murdered him and pounded him.
4081. 5:13:23–5:13:27If you don't believe it, just look at his back.
4082. 5:13:27–5:13:36Doing so, yes, yes, when a servant is branded that way, no wonder he tells tales.
4083. 5:13:36–5:13:41A curse on slavery. A slave convinces nobody.
4084. 5:13:41–5:13:48Maunfully, noble Charodata. I have no further power. He falls at Charodata's feet.
4085. 5:13:48–5:13:55Monfully, rise, rise, find soul to good men fallen on pain.
4086. 5:13:55–5:13:59Brave friend who lendest such unselfish aid.
4087. 5:13:59–5:14:02Thy greatest toil to save me was in vain.
4088. 5:14:02–5:14:06For fate would not, thy duty now is paid.
4089. 5:14:06–5:14:11Beat your servant, master, and drive him away.
4090. 5:14:11–5:14:14Out of the way, you!
4091. 5:14:14–5:14:21He drives Stavarica away. Come, headsmen, what are you waiting for? Kill him.
4092. 5:14:22–5:14:25Kill him yourself, if you are in a hurry.
4093. 5:14:25–5:14:29Oh, headsmen, kill me and let father go free.
4094. 5:14:30–5:14:33Yesh, Sean and father, kill them both.
4095. 5:14:34–5:14:39This fool might do anything. Go, my son, to your mother.
4096. 5:14:40–5:14:42And what should I do then?
4097. 5:14:42–5:14:58Go with thy mother to a hermitage. No moment, dear, delay, lest of thy father's fault thou reap the wage. And tread the self-same way. And you, my friend, go with him.
4098. 5:14:58–5:15:00Oh, my f...
4099. 5:15:00–5:15:04Friend, have you so known me as to think that I can live without you?
4100. 5:15:04–5:15:11Not so, my friend. Your life is your own. You may not throw it away.
4101. 5:15:11–5:15:21Aside, true, and yet I cannot live apart from my friend. And so, when I have taken the boy to his mother, I will follow my friend even in death.
4102. 5:15:21–5:15:28death. Allowed, yes, my friend, I will take him to her at once. He embraces Charodata,
4103. 5:15:28–5:15:33then falls at his feet. Roesena does the same, weeping.
4104. 5:15:33–5:15:41Look here. Did Enti tell you to kill Charodata and his Sean? Too? At this? Charodata betrays
4105. 5:15:41–5:15:43fear.
4106. 5:15:43–5:15:49We haven't any orders from the king to kill Charudatta and his son.
4107. 5:15:49–5:15:502.
4108. 5:15:50–5:15:51Run away.
4109. 5:15:51–5:15:54Boy, run away.
4110. 5:15:54–5:15:56They drive Rojasena away.
4111. 5:15:56–5:16:00Here is the third place of proclamation.
4112. 5:16:00–5:16:01Beat the drum.
4113. 5:16:01–5:16:04They proclaim the sentence again.
4114. 5:16:04–5:16:06Aside.
4115. 5:16:06–5:16:08But the citizens don't believe it.
4116. 5:16:08–5:16:09Allowed.
4117. 5:16:09–5:16:10Charudatta.
4118. 5:16:10–5:16:12You jack-o-naips.
4119. 5:16:12–5:16:14The citizens don't believe it.
4120. 5:16:14–5:16:16Shay it with your own tongue.
4121. 5:16:16–5:16:19I murdered Vasantasena.
4122. 5:16:19–5:16:20Charudatta remains silent.
4123. 5:16:20–5:16:21Look here.
4124. 5:16:21–5:16:22Headsmen.
4125. 5:16:22–5:16:25The man won't shpeak.
4126. 5:16:25–5:16:27The jack-o'-nape's Charudatta.
4127. 5:16:27–5:16:29Just make him shpeak.
4128. 5:16:29–5:16:33Beat him a few times with fish-raggard bamboo.
4129. 5:16:33–5:16:35Or with a chain.
4130. 5:16:35–5:16:37Raises his arm to strike.
4131. 5:16:37–5:16:41Come, Charudatta, speak.
4132. 5:16:41–5:16:45Monfully, now am I sunk so deep in sorrow's sea.
4133. 5:16:45–5:16:49I know no fear, I know no sadness more.
4134. 5:16:49–5:16:52Yet even now one flame still torches me.
4135. 5:16:52–5:16:57That men should say I slew whom I adore.
4136. 5:16:57–5:17:01Sanstanaka repeats his words.
4137. 5:17:01–5:17:06Men of my own city, a scoundrel I, who bear the blame,
4138. 5:17:06–5:17:14Nor seek in heaven to be blessed. A maid, or goddess, tea is the same but he will say the rest.
4139. 5:17:14–5:17:17Ux, 30.
4140. 5:17:17–5:17:19Killed her.
4141. 5:17:19–5:17:21So be it.
4142. 5:17:21–5:17:24It's S your turn to kill him, man.
4143. 5:17:24–5:17:27No, yours.
4144. 5:17:27–5:17:33Well, let S reckon it out. He does so at great length.
4145. 5:17:33–5:17:40Well, if it's my turn to kill him, we will just let it wait a minute.
4146. 5:17:40–5:17:42Why?
4147. 5:17:42–5:17:47Well, when my father was going to heaven, he said to me,
4148. 5:17:47–5:17:55son Gohar, if it's your turn to kill him, don't kill the sinner too quick.
4149. 5:17:55–5:17:57But why?
4150. 5:17:57–5:18:03Perhaps, said he, some good man might give the money to set him free.
4151. 5:18:03–5:18:08Perhaps a son might be born to the king, and to celebrate the event.
4152. 5:18:08–5:18:11All the prisoners might be set free.
4153. 5:18:11–5:18:14Perhaps an elephant might break loose.
4154. 5:18:14–5:18:18And the prisoner might escape in the excitement.
4155. 5:18:18–5:18:21Perhaps there might be a change of kings.
4156. 5:18:21–5:18:24And all the prisoners might be set free.
4157. 5:18:24–5:18:28What? What? A change of kings?
4158. 5:18:28–5:18:32Well, let S reckon it out.
4159. 5:18:32–5:18:34Whose turn it is?
4160. 5:18:34–5:18:38Oh, come, kill Charudatta at once.
4161. 5:18:38–5:18:42He takes Stavarica, and withdraws a little.
4162. 5:18:42–5:18:44Noble Charudatta.
4163. 5:18:44–5:18:48It is the king's commandment that bears the blame.
4164. 5:18:48–5:18:50Not we, headsmen.
4165. 5:18:50–5:18:53Think, then, of what you needs must think.
4166. 5:18:53–5:18:56Though slandered by a cruel fate,
4167. 5:18:56–5:18:59and stained by men of high estate,
4168. 5:18:59–5:19:11If that my virtue yet regarded be, then she who dwells with gods above, or wheresoever else, my love by her sweet nature wipe the stain from me.
4169. 5:19:11–5:19:15Tell me, wither would you have me go?
4170. 5:19:15–5:19:26Pointing Ahead. Why? Here is the southern burying ground, and when a criminal sees that, he says goodbye to life in a minute.
4171. 5:19:26–5:19:34For look! One half the corpse gaunt jackals rend and shake, and ply their horrid task.
4172. 5:19:34–5:19:41One half still hangs impaled upon the stake. Loud laughter's grinning mask.
4173. 5:19:41–5:19:48Alas! Ah! War is me! In his agitation he sits down.
4174. 5:19:48–5:19:56I won't go yet. I, Ul just she chari-data killed. He walks about, gazing. Well,
4175. 5:19:56–5:19:58Well, he shut down.

4178. 5:20:30–5:20:40and men. In this world, one rises only to fall, another falls only to rise again, but from him who
4179. 5:20:40–5:20:49has risen and falls, his body drops like a garment. Lay these thoughts to heart and be strong to a
4180. 5:20:49–5:20:57a hinter. Here is the fourth place of proclamation. Let us proclaim the sentence. They do so once
4181. 5:20:57–5:20:58again.
4182. 5:20:58–5:21:08Vusantasina, O my beloved, from thy dear lips, that wide with corals red, betraying teeth
4183. 5:21:08–5:21:15more bright than moonbeams fair. My soul with heaven's nectar once was fed. How can I,
4184. 5:21:15–5:21:22taste that poison dread. To drink sheen's poisoned cup how can I bear?"
4185. 5:21:22–5:21:29Enter, in great agitation, Vasantacina and the Buddhist monk.
4186. 5:21:29–5:21:37Strange! My monkish life did me yeoman service when it proved necessary to comfort Vasantacina.
4187. 5:21:37–5:21:42so untimely worried, and to lead her on her way.
4188. 5:21:42–5:21:46Sister in Buddha, with a shall I lead you
4189. 5:21:46–5:21:48to the noble charodicter's house.
4190. 5:21:48–5:21:51Revive me with the sight of him,
4191. 5:21:51–5:21:56as the night-blooming water lily is revived by the sight of the moon.
4192. 5:21:56–5:22:00Aside, by which road shall I enter?
4193. 5:22:00–5:22:03He reflects. The King's Highway.
4194. 5:22:03–5:22:06I, L, L, enter by that.
4195. 5:22:06–5:22:17Come, sister in Buddha, here is the king's highway listening, but what is this great tumult that I hear on the king's highway?
4196. 5:22:17–5:22:23Looking before her, why, there is a great crowd of people before us.
4197. 5:22:23–5:22:32Pray find out, sir, what it means, all would she need tips to one side, as if the earth bore an uneven load.
4198. 5:22:32–5:22:49And here is the last place of proclamation. Beat the drum. Proclaim the sentence. They do so. Now, Sharudatta, wait! Don't be frightened. You will be killed very quickly.
4199. 5:22:49–5:22:51Ye blessed gods.
4200. 5:22:51–5:23:00Listen. In terror. Sister in Buddha, Sharudatta is being led to his death for murdering you.
4201. 5:23:00–5:23:10In terror! Alas! For my wretched sake the noble Charudatta put to death! Quick! Quick! Oh! Let me dither!
4202. 5:23:10–5:23:24Hason! Oh! Hason! Sister in Buddha! To comfort the noble Charudatta while he yet lives! Make way! Gentlemen! Make way!
4203. 5:23:24–5:23:26Make way! Make way!
4204. 5:23:26–5:23:36Noble Charudatta, it is the king's commandment that bears the blame. Think then of what you needs must think.
4205. 5:23:36–5:23:55Why waste words, though slandered by a cruel fate, and stained by men of high estate? If that my virtue yet regarded be, then she who dwells with gods above, or wheresoever else, my love by her sweet nature wipe the stain from me.
4206. 5:23:55–5:24:07Drawing his sword. Noble Charudatta. Lie flat and be quiet. With one stroke we will kill you and send you to heaven.
4207. 5:24:07–5:24:18Charudatta does so. Goha raises his arm to strike. The sword falls from his hand. What is this?
4208. 5:24:18–5:24:26I fiercely grasped within my hand my thunderbolt appalling brand. Why did it fall upon the sand?
4209. 5:24:26–5:24:33But since it did, I conclude that the noble Charodata is not to die. Have mercy,
4210. 5:24:33–5:24:39O mighty goddess of the Sahia Hills. If only Charodata might be saved,
4211. 5:24:39–5:24:43then hats thou shone favor to our headsman caste.
4212. 5:24:43–5:24:47Let us do as we were ordered.
4213. 5:24:47–5:24:53Well, let us do it. They make ready to impale Charudatta,
4214. 5:24:53–5:24:59those slandered by a cruel feat, and stained by men of high estate.
4215. 5:25:00–5:25:30अछि। अछि। आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आप आ� आप आप आप आ� आ� आ� आप आ� आ� आ� आप आ� आ� आप आ� आप आ� आ� आ� आ� आप आ� आ� आ� आ
4216. 5:25:30–5:25:37shoulder. Loosened from its bands, she loudly calls upon us to forebear and hastens hither
4217. 5:25:37–5:25:40with uplifted hands.
4218. 5:25:40–5:25:46Oh, Charodatta, what does it mean? She falls on his breast.
4219. 5:25:46–5:25:53Oh, Charodatta, what does it mean? He falls at his feet.
4220. 5:25:53–5:26:00with drawing. Va Santicina. At least, we did not kill an innocent man.
4221. 5:26:00–5:26:05Rising. Thank heaven. Charodata lives.
4222. 5:26:05–5:26:08And shall live a hundred years.
4223. 5:26:08–5:26:13Joyfully. And I too am brought back to life again.
4224. 5:26:13–5:26:20The king is at the place of sacrifice. Let us report to him what has taken place.
4225. 5:26:20–5:26:23Two headsmen start to go away.
4226. 5:26:23–5:26:25Perceives Vasantasina.
4227. 5:26:25–5:26:26In terror.
4228. 5:26:26–5:26:27Goodness.
4229. 5:26:27–5:26:30Who brought the slave back to life?
4230. 5:26:30–5:26:32Fish is the end of me.
4231. 5:26:32–5:26:33Good.
4232. 5:26:33–5:26:35I, I'll run away.
4233. 5:26:35–5:26:38He runs away.
4234. 5:26:38–5:26:39Returning.
4235. 5:26:39–5:26:40Well.
4236. 5:26:40–5:26:45Didn't we have orders from the king to put the man to death who murdered Vasantasina?
4237. 5:26:45–5:26:49Let us hunt for the king's brother in law.
4238. 5:26:49–5:26:51The two headsmen.
4239. 5:26:51–5:26:57In amazement, who saves me from the uplifted weapon scorn?
4240. 5:26:57–5:27:00When in death's jaws I struggled all for long.
4241. 5:27:00–5:27:05A streaming cloud above the rainless scorn.
4242. 5:27:05–5:27:08He gazes at her.
4243. 5:27:08–5:27:11Is this Vazanta Sina's counterfeit?
4244. 5:27:11–5:27:12Or she herself?
4245. 5:27:12–5:27:14From heaven above descended?
4246. 5:27:14–5:27:18Or do I, but in madness, see my sweet?
4247. 5:27:18–5:27:25has her precious life not yet been ended? Or again? Did she return from heaven? That I
4248. 5:27:25–5:27:32might rescued be. Was her form to another given? Is this that other she?
4249. 5:27:32–5:27:38Rises tearfully and falls at his feet. O noble Charoditta, I am indeed the wretch
4250. 5:27:38–5:27:43for whose sake you are fallen upon this unworthy plight.
4251. 5:27:43–5:27:50A miracle, a miracle. Vasantasina lives. The bystanders repeat the words,
4252. 5:27:50–5:28:00listens, then rises suddenly, embraces Vasantasina, and closes his eyes, in a voice trembling with emotion.
4253. 5:28:00–5:28:04My la, you are Vasantasina.
4254. 5:28:04–5:28:12That same unhappy woman gazes upon her, joyfully. Can it be, Vasantasina herself?
4255. 5:28:12–5:28:18herself, in utter happiness, her bosom bathed in streaming tears.
4256. 5:28:18–5:28:24When in death's power I fell, whence she come to slay my fears.
4257. 5:28:24–5:28:32Like heavenly magic spell, wasent Athena, oh, my beloved, unto my body, whence the life
4258. 5:28:32–5:28:33was fleeting.
4259. 5:28:33–5:28:37And all for thee, thou newest life to give.
4260. 5:28:37–5:28:45magic wonderful in lovers meeting. What power besides could make the dead man live? But see,
4261. 5:28:45–5:28:52my beloved, my blood-red garment seems a bright groom's cloak. Death's garland seems
4262. 5:28:52–5:28:59to me a bridal wreath. My love is near, and marriage music seems the fatal stroke, of
4263. 5:28:59–5:29:05drums that heralded my instant death, for she is here.
4264. 5:29:05–5:29:10with your utter kindness, what can it be that you have done?
4265. 5:29:10–5:29:18My beloved, he said that I had killed you. For ancient hatred sake, my mighty foe, hell's
4266. 5:29:18–5:29:23victim now, had almost laid me low.
4267. 5:29:23–5:29:28Stopping her ears, heaven averts the omen, it was he, the king's brother-in-law, who
4268. 5:29:28–5:29:31killed me.
4269. 5:29:31–5:29:35Perceiving the monk, but who is this?
4270. 5:29:35–5:29:41When that unworthy wretch had killed me, this worthy man brought me back to life.
4271. 5:29:41–5:29:45Who are you, unselfish friend?
4272. 5:29:45–5:29:47You do not remember me.
4273. 5:29:47–5:29:50Sir, I am that shampooer.
4274. 5:29:50–5:29:52Who once was happy to rub your feet?
4275. 5:29:52–5:29:56When I fell into the hands of certain gamblers.
4276. 5:29:56–5:29:58This sister in Buddha.
4277. 5:29:58–5:30:00Upon hearing that I had been your friend.
4278. 5:30:00–5:30:30विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-विश्वार-वि
4279. 5:30:30–5:30:35and actions offering foiled. And victory may cut to kiasi.
4280. 5:30:35–5:30:41Who crowned her smote and spoiled? And victory to Ariyaka the king, his mighty foe, he kills
4281. 5:30:41–5:30:48far over all the earth's expansive ring. That earth, her joyous flag abroad, may fling.
4282. 5:30:48–5:30:55The snowy banner of Kailasa's hills. Enter hurriedly, Shavalaka.
4283. 5:30:55–5:31:24Yes! Palakar! The royal wretch! I slew! Anointing Ariyaka, good king, and true! And now? Like sacrificial flowers! I wed! The king's commandment to my bended head! To give sad Charu Dattalife anew! The foe whose powers and friends had fled! He slew! Consoled and comforted his subjects true! And earth's broad sovereignty has gladly wed!
4284. 5:31:24–5:31:31his power, and bent to him her lowly head. Who toward his foe plays Indra's part anew?"
4285. 5:31:31–5:31:40He looks before him. Ah! There he will be found. Where the people are thus gathered together.
4286. 5:31:40–5:31:46Oh! That this deed of King Ariaka might be crowned with the rescued life of noble
4287. 5:31:46–5:31:57Charodata. He quickens his steps. Make way. Urascals. He discovers Charodata. Joyfully.
4288. 5:31:57–5:32:04Is Charodata yet living? And Vasantasina. Truly, our sovereign's wishes are fulfilled.
4289. 5:32:07–5:32:12Yet how shall I approach him? Who have so grievously sinned against him? But no.
4290. 5:32:12–5:32:22No. Honesty is always honourable. He approaches and folds his hands. Allowed. Oh noble chariotata!
4291. 5:32:22–5:32:25Who are you, sir?
4292. 5:32:25–5:32:32I forced your house in Manabase and stole the gems there left behind. But though this
4293. 5:32:32–5:32:37sin oppressed my mind, I throw myself upon your grace.
4294. 5:32:37–5:32:39Not so, my friend.
4295. 5:32:39–5:32:42Thereby you showed your faith in me.
4296. 5:32:42–5:32:44He embraces him."
4297. 5:32:44–5:32:46And one thing more.
4298. 5:32:46–5:32:49The very noble Ariaka.
4299. 5:32:49–5:32:51To save his family and name.
4300. 5:32:51–5:32:53Has slain the wretched Palaka?
4301. 5:32:53–5:32:56A victim at the altar's flame.
4302. 5:32:56–5:32:58What say you?
4303. 5:32:58–5:33:01T was your cart, helped him on his way.
4304. 5:33:01–5:33:04Who sought the shelter of your name?
4305. 5:33:04–5:33:07He slew King Palaka today.
4306. 5:33:07–5:33:09a victim at the altar's flame.
4307. 5:33:09–5:33:17Sharvilka, did you set free that Aryaka whom Palaka took from his hamlet and confined without
4308. 5:33:17–5:33:20cause in the tower?
4309. 5:33:20–5:33:22I did.
4310. 5:33:22–5:33:25This is indeed most welcome tidings.
4311. 5:33:25–5:33:32Scarcely was your friend Aryaka established in Ujaini when he bestowed upon you the
4312. 5:33:32–5:33:34throne of Kushavati.
4313. 5:33:34–5:33:41the bank of the Veena. May you graciously receive this first token of his love. He turns around.
4314. 5:33:41–5:33:48Come. Lead hither that rascal. That villain. The brother-in-law of the king.
4315. 5:33:48–5:33:57We will, Shavulaka. Sir. King Ariyaka declares that he won this kingdom through your virtues.
4316. 5:33:57–5:34:01And that you are therefore to have some benefit from it.
4317. 5:34:01–5:34:04The kingdom won through my virtues.
4318. 5:34:04–5:34:11Come on, brother in law of the king, and reap the reward of your insolence.
4319. 5:34:11–5:34:17Enter Sannsternaka, guarded with his hands tied behind his back.
4320. 5:34:17–5:34:19Goodness gracious!
4321. 5:34:19–5:34:20It came to pass.
4322. 5:34:20–5:34:25I ran away like any arse, and had my day.
4323. 5:34:25–5:34:32They drag me round, a prince on a, as if they, they found a naughty cur.
4324. 5:34:32–5:34:34He looks about him.
4325. 5:34:34–5:34:36They crowd around me.
4326. 5:34:36–5:34:43Though I, am a relative of the kings, to whom shall I go for help in my helplessness?
4327. 5:34:43–5:34:44He reflects.
4328. 5:34:44–5:34:45Good.
4329. 5:34:45–5:34:51I, ll go to the man who gives help and shows mercy to the shappliant.
4330. 5:34:51–5:34:53He approaches.
4331. 5:34:53–5:34:55Noble Charodata.
4332. 5:34:55–5:34:59Protect me. Protect me. He falls at his feet.
4333. 5:35:00–5:35:05नोबल शारुड़ाटा, लिएपिम तु अस, लेट अस किल हिम.
4334. 5:35:05–5:35:10तु शरुड़ाटा, औव लपर अव दे लप्लिस, प्रटिक्त में.
4335. 5:35:10–5:35:17वो सप्फोली, येस, येस, फी वो सीक्स प्रटेक्छन शाल भी सेप.
4336. 5:35:17–5:35:28Impatiently. Confound him. Take him away from Charudatta. To Charudatta. Tell me. What shall be done with the wretch?
4337. 5:35:28–5:35:39Shall he be bound and dragged until he dies? Shall dogs devour the scoundrel as he lies? If he should be impaled, T would be no blunder.
4338. 5:35:39–5:35:42Nor if we had the rascal's sawn asunder.
4339. 5:35:42–5:35:45Will you do as I see?
4340. 5:35:45–5:36:07How can you doubt it? Charudatta! Mashahtha! I seek your protection. Protect me! Protect me! Do shon'th thing worthy of your shelf. I'll never do it again. Voices of citizens behind the scenes. Kill him. Why should the wretch be allowed to live?
4341. 5:36:07–5:36:15VaSantaSena takes the garland of death from Charudatta's neck and throws it upon Sanztenaka.
4342. 5:36:15–5:36:24You slave wench! Be merciful! Be merciful! I, I'll never murder you again! Protect me!
4343. 5:36:24–5:36:31Come! Take him away! Noble Charudatta! Say what shall be done with the wretch!
4344. 5:36:31–5:36:34Will you do as I see?
4345. 5:36:34–5:36:37How can you doubt it?
4346. 5:36:37–5:36:38Really?
4347. 5:36:38–5:36:40Really?
4348. 5:36:40–5:36:43Then let him be immediately.
4349. 5:36:43–5:36:45Killed?
4350. 5:36:45–5:36:48No, no, set free.
4351. 5:36:48–5:36:50What for?
4352. 5:36:50–5:36:56The humbled foe who seeks thine aid, thou mist not smite with steely blade.
4353. 5:36:56–5:37:01All right, we will have the dogs eat him alive.
4354. 5:37:01–5:37:05No, no, be cruelty with kindness paid.
4355. 5:37:05–5:37:10Wonderful! What shall I do? Tell me, sir.
4356. 5:37:10–5:37:13Why? Set him free.
4357. 5:37:13–5:37:20It shall be done. Hooray! I breathe again. Exit, with the guards.
4358. 5:37:20–5:37:27Mistress Vasantacina, the king is pleased to bestow upon you the title, wedded wife.
4359. 5:37:27–5:37:30Sir, I desire no more.
4360. 5:37:30–5:37:38Places the veil upon Vasantasena. To Charudatta. Sir, what shall be done for this monk?
4361. 5:37:38–5:37:42Monk, what do you most desire?
4362. 5:37:42–5:37:49When I see this example of the uncertainty of all things, I am twice content to be a monk.
4363. 5:37:49–5:37:59His purpose is not to be changed. My friend, let him be appointed spiritual father over all the monasteries in the land.
4364. 5:37:59–5:38:04It shall be done. It is all that I desire.
4365. 5:38:04–5:38:08Now I am indeed brought back to life.
4366. 5:38:08–5:38:11What shall be done for Stavaraka?
4367. 5:38:11–5:38:18Let the good fellow be given his freedom. Let those headsmen be appointed chiefs of all the headsmen.
4368. 5:38:18–5:38:23Let Chandanaka be appointed chief of all the police in the land.
4369. 5:38:23–5:38:30Let the brother in law of the king continue to act exactly as he acted in the past.
4370. 5:38:30–5:38:37It shall be done. Only that man, leave him to me, and Ill kill him.
4371. 5:38:37–5:38:43He who seeks protection shall be safe. The humbled foe who seeks thy need.
4372. 5:38:43–5:38:49Thou mist not smite with steely blade. Be cruelty with kindness paid.
4373. 5:38:49–5:38:53Then tell me what I may yet do for you.
4374. 5:38:53–5:38:55Can there be more than this?
4375. 5:38:55–5:38:59I kept unstained my virtue's even worth.
4376. 5:38:59–5:39:02Granted my enemy his abject suit.
4377. 5:39:02–5:39:06Friend Ariaka destroyed his foreman's root.
4378. 5:39:06–5:39:09And rules a king war all this dead fast-worth.
4379. 5:39:09–5:39:13This dear-loved maiden is at last mine-worn.
4380. 5:39:13–5:39:16And you united with me as a friend.
4381. 5:39:16–5:39:23end. And shall I ask for further mercies? Shown, to me, who cannot sound these mercies
4382. 5:39:23–5:39:30end? Fate plays with us like buckets at the well, where one is filled, and one in empty
4383. 5:39:30–5:39:38shell, where one is rising, while another falls, and shows how life is changed, now
4384. 5:39:38–5:39:44heaven, now hell, yet may the wishes of her epilogue be fulfilled. Epilogue may
4385. 5:39:44–5:39:52kind yield streaming milk, the earth her grain, and may the heaven give never-failing rain.
4386. 5:39:52–5:39:55The winds waft happiness to all that breeds.
4387. 5:39:55–5:40:00And all that lives, live free from every pain.
