________________ 28 See) apa C SS) .dec.ee codecer PILIP SON The kancuki's arrival at the palace Before the king could reply, the aged chamberlain reached the abode of the chief queen. The king took the urn from his hands and sprinkled some water on the head of his seniormost consort and asked the chamberlain, "You were the first to receive the snätrajala. I personally gave you this urn and urged you to hurry up and deliver it to Kausalyā first. Why this delay?" The kañcuki replied, "Whatever your majesty says is true, I indeed was the first to receive this auspicious urn. It's also true that you ordered me not to tarry and yet I am late, but its not my fault altogether. My advancing age has diminished my strength and ambition. I beseech you majesty to have a close look at me. You will at once know who is the real culprit." Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.ainelibrary.org
