And her hinder parts were those of a red cow. She was like this, My spotted red cow. The Påņdays were frightened, Because they had lied. They covered the bones with the hide, Placing the bones in their order. They spread the hide on them, And began to pray:
Oh God, have mercy. Raise this cow.' The cow became alive. They showed her to him at once. In this place the Brâhman became a Chuhľa By way of punishment.
