I'll go and fetch it, but no one is to come with me." Subha Datta's wife was sorely disappointed at this, because she loved her husband so much that it was a joy to her to work for him. The children too wanted, of course, to go with their father, but he ordered them to stop where they were.
At home we had advanced in Bengali much further than the subjects taught in the class. We had been through Akshay Datta's book on Popular Physics, and had also finished the epic of Meghnadvadha. We read our physics without any reference to physical objects and so our knowledge of the subject was correspondingly bookish.
We will whisper in her ear when she is asleep, and she will be so glad to think of your happiness that she will forget her own troubles." Do you think what the fairies said to the woodcutter was likely to comfort him about his wife and children? If you had been in Subha Datta's place what would you have said to the fairies when they made this promise?
When, they all got very near the place, however, some idea began to come into Subha Datta's head that he was doing a very foolish thing. He stopped suddenly, turned round facing the crowd that followed him, and said he would not go a step further till they all went back to the cottage.
What would have been the best thing for Subha Datta to ask for, if he had decided to let the fairies keep their pitcher? You can just imagine what a surprise it was to Subha Datta's wife and children when they saw him coming along the path leading to his home.
To find this out, Hira had come to Debendra's house; only Hira would have had courage for such a deed. She now said: "What is my purpose? To day a thief entered the Datta's house and committed a robbery I have come to seize the robber." Hearing this, the Babu said: "It is true I went to steal; but, Hira, I went not to steal jewels or pearls, but to seek flowers and fruits." "What flower? Kunda?"
Their greatest achievements, however, were two versions of Bhanu Datta's Rasamanjari, one of them completed in 1695, shortly after Raja Kirpal Pal's death, the other almost certainly fifteen years earlier.
One by one the friends went away, leaving Subha Datta alone with his family. If you had been Subha Datta's wife, what would you have done when this misfortune came to her husband? What would you have done if you had been the woodcutter? This is the end of the story of the Magic Pitcher, but it was the beginning of a new chapter in the lives of Subha Datta and his family.
