“Having built a house in the chena jungle (landē) and tied white cloths [inside, on the walls and ceiling],[3] and put a bed [in it], you must give me it.”
Afterwards the King having caused a house to be built, and caused white cloths to be tied, and caused a bed to be placed [in it], gave it.
Afterwards this man having caused the bride to stay in the rock house, and having gone much beforehand (kalimma), crept under the end of the bed in the house and remained [there] silently.
The man who said he could seize the Yakā, after it became night having eaten and drunk, taking also a thread, came onto the bed in the house; having come he utters spells (maturanawā). Then the man who is under the bed shakes the jingling bangle a little.
The man who is uttering spells, after saying, “Hā, are you getting caught?” utters spells loudly, loudly.[4]
Then the man who was under the bed having arisen, taking the man together with the bed also, went to the rock house. Having gone there, when he was placing the bed in the rock house, the man who was on the bed, crying out and having got up, went to the city.
Then the King asked, “What is it? Didst thou seize the Yakā?”
The man having said, “Anē! O Lord, I indeed cannot seize him,” went to the man’s village.
Afterwards the King having said that he can seize him, and the King having mounted on his horse, came with the army to the Akaraganē jungle.
Then this man, breaking a bundle of branches, sprang in front [of him]. Having sprung in front of the King who was coming, seizing the horse this man came to the rock house. The King and the army went to the city through fear.
