1215 Going up into the palace he sat in the window.
Silently he sat in the palace.
At the mid watch of the night
The black venomous (Nag) looked about him.
R§ja Parag was asleep.
1220 Leaping up to the bed he bit him-
Biting him he came down again.
By the way he came
He left the palace.
Outside the palace he put on his (human) body.
1225 He put on the form of a Brahman.
He put on the sacred forehead marks and a loin cloth':
Wooden shoes he had on his feet and priest's staff in his
hand.
A lofty turban be put on and a long robe, and sat down
by the road.
Leaving the palace he went away after two or three
days.
