In a certain country, at a house there was a very wealthy nobleman
(sitana), but he had no children. Having seen that the men of the
country are giving their children in diga [marriage] he was much
grieved.
While he is thus, one day at the time when he went to the rice field,
having said, "Father," a certain female Frog fell weeping at the edge
of his foot; and the nobleman having brought this female Frog home,
nourished it.
One day, having started on a journey, and tied up a bundle of cooked
rice, and in the midst of it having put several rings, at the time
when he was going along the path taking the bundle of cooked rice
it became night while [he was] near a house, and he went there for
the resting-place.
At that house there was a young man. In the evening having unfastened
the bundle of cooked rice, at the time when he was eating the rice
he met with the rings, and having said, "Ane! My daughter's rings
have fallen into the bundle of cooked rice," he showed them to the
house people.
