rājakumāraḥ tasya phalaṃ khādan khādan mahān hṛṣṭa-puṣṭo 'bhavat | ekadā dhātrī taṃ rājasutaṃ kroḍe gṛhītvā paribhramantī āsīt | sa bālaka eva hi; bāla-svabhāvavaśād āgatya sa pakṣiṇaḥ śiśūn apaśyat, taiḥ saha ca yatnapūrvakaṃ krīḍitum ārabdhavān |
ພີສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: «ເຈົ້າຊາຍກິນຜົນໄມ້ນັ້ນເລື້ອຍໆ ຈົນເຕີບໃຫຍ່ແຂງແຮງ ແລະມີໃຈຮ່າເຮີງ. ມື້ໜຶ່ງ ນາງພະຍາບານອຸ້ມລູກຫຼວງໄວ້ໃນຕັກ ແລ້ວເດີນຫຼິ້ນໄປມາ. ເພາະເປັນເດັກນ້ອຍ ຕາມນິໄສເດັກ ລາວເຫັນລູກນົກ ແລ້ວເຂົ້າໄປຫຼິ້ນກັບພວກມັນຢ່າງລະມັດລະວັງ».
