Then when the proper time for wedding came, there arose a great dispute among the three in Hariswami's house. The wise man said: "If I had not discovered her by my wisdom, how could you have found her hiding-place? She should be given to me."
Your loveliness shamed the moon who refreshed me with beams cool as sandal; but now that you are gone, the same beams torment me like blazing coals, like poisoned arrows!" And as Hariswami lamented thus, the night came to an end, but his anguish did not end. The pleasant sun scattered the darkness, but could not scatter the blind darkness of Hariswami's madness.
Then the seventh day came and the three bridegrooms came to Hariswami's house. Strange to say, at that moment Moonlight disappeared. Then the wise man said: "A giant named Smoke-tail has carried her to his den in the Vindhya forest." When Hariswami heard this from the wise man, he was frightened and asked the clever man to find a remedy for the trouble.
