11. Lust Of Taste

Once upon a time when Brahmadatta was reigning in Benares he had a gardener named Sanjaya. A Wind-antelope came into the king’s pleasaunce, which fled away at the sight of Sanjaya, but the latter let it go without terrifying the timid creature. After several visits the antelope used to roam about in the pleasaunce. Sanjaya was in the habit of gathering flowers and fruits and taking them day by day to the king. One day the king said to him, “Have you noticed anything strange in the pleasaunce?” “Sir! that a wind-antelope has come about the grounds.”
