Having ascertained all the affairs of the state, and having learnt that all the officers, appointed by the king were guilty of misdeeds, the sage, with his crow, came to see the king. Of rigid vows, he said to the king,-I know everything. Coming to the king, he said to his minister holding the insignia of his office that he had been informed by his crow that the minister had done such a crime in such a place, and that such and such persons know that he had robbed the royal treasury! My crow tells me this. Admit or prove the falsehood of the charge speedily.
