ROHINI.
I cannot understand their words. . . . I am afraid. They are scampering off like wild animals that fly just before the bank of a river breaks down into the water.
[Enter KING OF KOSHALA]
KOSHALA.
Rohini, do you know where your King and Kanchi have gone?
ROHINI.
They are somewhere in the garden, but I could not tell you where.
KOSHALA.
I cannot really understand their intentions. I have not done well to put my trust in Kanchi. [Exit.]
ROHINI.
What is this dark affair going on amongst these kings? Something dreadful is going to happen soon. Shall I too be drawn into this affair? [Enter AVANTI]
AVANTI.
Rohini, do you know where the other princes are?
ROHINI.
It is difficult to say which of them is where. The King of Koshala just passed by in this direction.
AVANTI.
I am not thinking of Koshala. Where are your King and Kanchi?
ROHINI.
I have not seen them for a long time.
