The Lord doesn’t wish to let them go unsatisfied, but he is not inclined to sacrifice one of his subjects, and therefore offers them his own blood and flesh in spite of his ministers’ and courtiers’ resistance. The demons reclaim themselves and acknowledge the king’s holiness, he then admonishes them not to do wrong in future, but only that which is good (also, among others, to leave off drinking intoxicants). Indra descends from heaven to praise the Lord and to close his wounds. On 18 and on the corner-sculpture the _yakshas_ come across a herd who praises the king’s virtues. On 1 and 2 we see them near the king. These five _yakshas_ were afterwards reincarnated men, and became the first disciples who followed and left again the _Shakya-muni_ in order to join the _Buddha_ once more, and to become his first apostles[48]. _Fourth_ corner, 3, 4 and 5 (W. L. 37, 38 and 39). Now the Buddha of after life was king _Samjaya_’s son and hereditary prince. One day, riding his white elephant, he met with some brahmins who asked him, in the name of their king, for the elephant. He dismounts and gives them the noble animal. On account of this foolish deed he saw himself driven away by his father who acted at the instigation of his (the father’s) courtiers. He mounts his carriage accompanied by Madrî, his wife, and their two children, and then sets off. Once more some brahmins come to ask him for his fine horses. The prince gives his consent, and puts himself before the carriage. Another brahmin appears now, and demands this carriage; Madrî and the children get out, and the prince takes his little son on his, and the mother takes their little daughter on her arm to continue their journey afoot. Trees bend their branches in homage, lotus-ponds refresh, and clouds overshadow them, and so they reach their place of exile where they find a tabernacle built for them by Indra. One day, when Madrî found herself in the wood to seek for roots and fruit for their meal, there came a brahmin demanding from her husband the two little ones in order to lead them away as bound slaves. An earth-quake calls Indra’s attention, and when the deity hears the cause of this he also comes, as a brahmin, to the now childless father, and claims the latter’s wife, the disconsolate mother. But as the prince is also inclined to comply with this demand of his, Indra reveals himself and gives him back all that which he lost. Even his place at his father’s court. On 3 we see him cede his elephant, and the children have been hewn on 4. On 5 the _yakshas_ conduct the princely carriage after having put out the horses. _Fifth_ corner, 1, 2, 3 and 4 [W. L., 48, 49, 50 and 51].
