"O' worthless man! You wicked ! What have you done this ? Did you kill that female - monkey who had protected you even though you had thrust her down into my mouth ? In spite of this ingratitude on your paat, She was benificent and returned good for evil. Go away from my range. It is a sin even to see your tace. Now I can not accept you as my food. Your flesh is poisonous due to your ingratitude. It is a sin even to touch you. Woe unto your malicious and sinful behaviour !"
King Haripal of Harikanta city came to know of the ghastly sin of this hunter, Bheel. He began to think :
“I encourage nourishing of the monkey species in my city and this wicked, cruel Bheel kills them ! This cruel man has killed a benificent female-monkey. I will order to hang him to death."
