(Going) But I have yet one trick which Your Majesty must
witness.
King—We will see it, sure.
Vasava—Go and make him a present, Kánchanamálá.
Kánchana—As Your Ladyship commands. (Exit with the
conjuror)
King—Vasantaka, go and conduct Basubhuti hither with
due honour.
Jester — As Your Majesty commands.
(Enter Vasubhuti and Bábhravya with Vasantaka
who welcomes them)
Vasubhuti—(Looking around) Ah, how great is the glory
of the King of the Vatsas. Being attracted by the mighty
victorious elephants, charmed with the sweet sound of songs,
bewildered at the sight of the stately steeds, I had been for
sometime in the assembly of the princes, and thus I forgetting
for a moment the opulence of the King of Simhala, was taken
to be a rustic by a porter at the entrance-room, who was in
great curiosity. (Or, due to my evincing great curiousity.) 12.
Bábhravya—Oh Vasubhuti, the idea of seeing my master
today after a long absence makes me feel the change of cir-
cumstances through excessive joy. Since—
Extreme joy of mine today is causing an excessive trembling
through fear, is covering my weak eye-sight more with tears
and is making half-uttered words inarticulate still, through
the choking of voice and thus is helping my old age. 13.
Jester—(In advance of them) Come on this way, Minister.
Vasubhuti—(Seeing the necklace around the Jester's neck
and aside) Oh Bábhravya, I think this is that necklace which
was given to the Princess by His Majesty at the time of
her departure.
