The parrot says, "Seize another man and eat him. Let that man go." Then
the Rakshasa let him go; after that the man went away.
Having gone and hidden, he stayed in the midst of the forest. The
Rakshasa went to watch the path. After that, that man came to the
Rakshasa's house. Having come, the man says to the Rakshasa's boy
(son), "O youth (kolloweni), thy Rakshasa died."
The Rakshasa youth is grieved, and says, "You are not my mother,
not my father; what man are you?"
Then the man says, "I am thy Rakshasa's elder brother." The man told
a lie.
The Rakshasa youth says, "It is good. There is much wealth of my
father's," he said.
Then the man went into the Rakshasa's house to take the wealth. Having
gone in, there was a golden mat (kalale); he took it. There was a
golden cloth; he took it. Taking these, the man went away unknown to
the Rakshasa youths. [166]
After he went secretly (himin), the Rakshasa next (dewanu) came to
the house. Having finished coming, [167] he says, "Where is my golden
mat?" he asked.
Thereupon, the Rakshasa youth said, "Your elder brother came and took
away the mat."
