THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY.
[JANUARY, 1907.
Push miliya si Nukaliye Us léya chaur band. Té khardôré léyd Sukhdev né, Un léyé pane band. Té sir lêyd Arjun né, Un léyd mukat band. Té pôsht léya Mai Kunti né, Un léya pichhard bands Té limia karke mas dá, Darðpti chulle ditta chasha. Hath khundi té mondhé kamb!l, Krishn gayd tad d,

Aggd hire hirn dd, Onda pichha kapli gan.' Chijan sdrián Krishn né, Tad léyan khud utha, Té sarap ditta sú Påndván.
Tusin Chúhre hôvô jú. Kal jug vich mildnga. Jad búlô sach suna.'
Nukal got the tail, He made a fan with it. Sukhdev got the hoofs, He made sandals of them. Arjan took the head And made a crown for his head. Mother Kuntî got the hide, And made herself a shawl. And hashing the beef, Daroptî began to cook it on the fire. In hand a stick, and on shoulder a blanket, Krishn came up suddenly.
O faithful brethren, sitting there, Have you seen my spotted cow?'
We do not at all know What your cow was like.
Its head was like a deer's, The hinder part like a red cow.' All the things Krishn seized And took away, And he cursed the Pandavs.
Go, become Chuhras. In the Kaljug I will associate with you When you speak the truth.'
Another Version.

Rám built Råmsar. The five Pandavs came there and rested. The Påndavs were enjoying their rest, When a spotted cow came thither. High-handed were the Pandavs, And they seized the spotted cow. When they had sacrificed the cow, They divided her. Bhim got the intestines, And wore them like the Hindus' sacred thread, Shahdev got the hoofs, And wore them as sandals. Arjan got the head, And put it on his head for a crown. Mother Kunti got the hide, And had it dyed for a shaw). While the Pândays were sitting there, Sri Krishn came up, *O brothers sitting there, O holy men, Have you seen my spotted cow?' . We do not know at all What your cow was like, He spake with his mouth:
Let him who saw her speak plainly. Her foreparts were those of a deer,
