“We see here a matchlessly beautiful damsel and the king has married her giving her a pledge, namely that he would never show her any water." Having heard all this, he (the minister) made an artificial forest containing many trees with numerous fruits and flowers. He excavated a large and deep tank within that forest in one of its corners. He covered it with a net of pearls and its water looked like ambrosia. One day he spoke thus to the king in private. “This is a beautiful forest having no water any where. Sport here in joy."
