Natrinai 65

canyon falls

The neighboring lady says the Man of the hill-track will come. It is an augury of benevolence. Let she eat ambrosia. The friend-maid said her lady in her anxiety.     

There is a water-fall with canyon. A male elephant takes in the in its pond. A tiger attacks it. The elephant wins the wounding the tiger. However the elephant wounded heavily. Having this opportunity the hill-dwellers cut its tusks. The elephant makes thundering sound in pain. The hero is the man of such kind of mountain-track. The augury is about his return home.
