“Because I shall not be able to get such a God-like beggar again.”13.

The King decided this general notion in his mind, but perceptibly he did not divulge it to anyone.

He asked the medicant to give his pot, in order to enact such a base deed.14.

Shukracharya understood the notion of the mind of the King, but the ignorant King could not comprehend it.

Shukracharya transformed himself into a small fish and seated himself in the mendicant’s pot.15.

The King took the mendicant’s pot in his hand and the time forgiving alms to the Brahmin arrived.

When the King in order to give alms took some water in his hand, no water came out of the pot.16.

Then the Brahmin became furious and told the King to check up the por.

The pipe of the pot was searched with a straw and with this search one eye of Shukracharya was lost.17.

The King took the straw in his hand and revolved it within the pot.

It pierced the eye of Shukrachraya and thus one eye of the preceptor Shukraccharya was lost.18.
