A minister of the king of Benares arranged in secret with a band of robbers that
when he collected the revenue of a border village, he would march his men off into
the jungle, leaving the robbers free to secure the booty. The plan was carried out
and half the booty made over to him -- but his treachery became known and he was
disgraced. The story was related in relation to a ministe of the Kosala king who
was guilty of similar treachery. |
