" Yes indeed, Sir, there has been a great rain in the jungle just in front, the roads are well watered, there is much grass and wood and water.
Throw away the grass and wood and water, Sir, you have already got ; with light - laden carts you will go quite quickly ; do not tire your teams. " ' Then the leader told his carters what the man had said, and bade them throw away their provender and wood, that the caravan might travel more quickly.
" So be it, sir, " the carters replied, and did so. But at their first camp they saw no grass or wood or water, nor at the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh camp. So they all met with ruin and disaster.
And then that fiend, the yakkha, devoured all the men and the cattle in that caravan, leaving only the bones behind.
' When the second caravan leader knew that the other caravan had got well on its way, he took in large supplies of grass and wood and water and set out.
And he too met a swarthy red - eyed man, and exchanged with him the same remarks, and was also bidden to throw away his provender.
' Then that leader said to his carters : " This man, sirs, says that there has recently been much rain in the jungle, that the roads are watered, and there is plenty of grass and wood and water.
