"'Yudhishthira said, "I desire, O grandsire, to know by giving unto whom the things dedicated to the deities and the Pitris, one may earn the amplest rewards."

Always I am welcome in the homes of artisans and in the cottages of tillers of the soil. I am the guardian of industrious households, and the rewarder of generous masters and faithful servants.

Near Callao are some islands which are very interesting to tillers of the soil especially. In passing them I noticed millions and millions of birds.
The earth- tillers and the Hyksos, I say, worthiness, are like an ox and a bull. The earth-tiller may go behind the plough or before it, but the Hyksos will not serve any man, unless in the army of his holiness, that is warrior life." The boatman was in the vein and talked continually, but the prince heard no longer.
