The birds which came to eat the pdri^- and which were frightened, away by those
who guarded it, flew op into a tree, which from the retreat it alforded to the birds
received 'the name of AiiSn {Lirênan signifying a place o f refuge). Roden Jaka Püring
then ordered the protectors o f the pari to make a flight of steps up the tree; agd. to'
lop off th'elbra‘nches.,: In doing this, the juice which issued from the tree being tasted
was found to be sweet and capable of making sugar, which was then first dis/qovereqJftiy^
- Some df the.juice o f the treé being carried and presented to Wistut, was ordered by,
him to be taken to Sang yang Guru by Kanehapidra.-
" On Kanekaputra’s opening the hollow bambu in which it was contained, previously
to presenting it to Sang-yang Guru, the fermented liquor flew up into his face, and
caused him, when he tasted it,- to put out and smack his lips with pleasure and safer
faction. Sang yang Guru then ridiculed him for his simplicity, and pronouncing in
ironical terms his opinion thereof, the words were irrevocable, and Kanekapütra then
had his lips turned up1, his hinder .parts pointed and .projected,, a gruff voice .and a pot-
belly, '

Ö f the children of P/itut Jan taka, the first was in form like a white rat and about
the size of a dog, and was named Tikus ,Jenanda : he had an innumerable host of
followers. The second was in shape like a hog, andjwas named Demdlung: he also
had thousands of followers. The third was in shape like Kultla, and la d likewise,
many followers. The fourth was like a buffalo, and was .Called Maisa Ddnu. The
fifth and sixth were Kola Sering'g i and KdlaMusti, and resembled the male and female
Mnléng, or wild bull and cow. The next was JJjang, and was in shape like pladaitg.
or small deer. The next, Kirandé, was like a stag. The nest, were like sea and
land tortoises,
A ll were greatly distressed for want of’ food, and annoyed their parent by constant
craving for it. The father then told them-to go to Mandang , Kamülan, where .they
would find all sorts of produce; enjoining them, however, to take nothing without
first asking for if. The children, one and all, immediately answered in an assenting
voice, and forthwith repaired to Mendang Kanndan, where they arrived in the middle
of the night, and being very hungry began .to help themselves to what they saw before
them, without leave or ceremony. The persons w.ho guarded the V,y i (jüru samah)
heard the noise they made, and were at a loss to know what it was, A tla s t one of them
came out with a torch in one hand and a large knife in the other. When the son that
was like a hog saw him, he ran towards him to attack him, and -received a cut in the
head, which as he was-invulnerable did him no harm. When the. jy n i samah found
that he could not cut .the hog, he immediately assembled all his fellows, who commenced
an attack upon the hog, and whose numerous torches made the night, as light
as the day. Unable, however, to hurt him, they, went with Raden Jaka Paring to report
iO Prabu Méhdimg Ramülan what, had happened. The king then gave orders for
.nil his people to go with whatever the weapon's-they .could muster, and; use their utmost
