[3] From my own experience in the case of a severe burn, I can say that a paste of cow-dung smeared completely over a burnt place entirely removes all pain, and the wound soon heals under it. The paste dries immediately owing to the heat of the skin, and after that no unpleasant smell remains. [↑]

The Magic Lute Player[1]
In a country a Prince [after] constructing a Lute plays[2] it. Throughout the extent through which the sound was heard, not a female elephant nor tusk elephant stays away; it comes to look. In that manner he caused many elephants to be brought [up to him] in the jungles.
A Princess of another city was minded to look at this Prince. Because it was so she said, “I will (would) give five hundred masuran to a person who brought and gave him; having given them I will marry that person.”
Yet [another] Prince asked, “I will bring and give him; will you marry me?” When he asked, the Princess says, “Cause him to be brought; I will [then] marry you.”
