Time was when the Lord himself was a _king_ to whom one of his subjects offered his most beautiful daughter. At the advice of his courtiers sent to her, fearing that the king would become crazy of love for such an strikingly beautiful woman, he declines the offer after which she marries one of his officials. One day taking a drive the king saw her, and took a passionate love to her. On his being informed that she had already entered upon marriage he controls his passions, and even refuses to get her from the hands of her own husband, because he places his feelings of justice above his personal happiness. On 1 the offer is being delivered to the king; on 2 his messengers visit the virgin; on 3 they give the prince a full account of the state of things, and on 4 the king meets her himself. _Fifth_ corner. 5 [W. L., 52]. As a retired old _sailor_ the Lord, though almost blind, allowed himself to be gained into embarking for a commercial journey in order to assure the ship a safe voyage. A heavy storm flung the ship far away, and through unknown seas till near the end of the world. Return again was impossible and their ruin seemed to be inevitable. One means only could save them, and they prayed the deities for help for the sake of the Lord’s spotless virtue and love of truth. And this succeeded. The storm abated, and they could return to the harbour. On their journey home through an emerald-green sea, the blind sailor, seeing with the eyes of other passengers, told them to pull up sand and stones from the bottom of the sea, and take them on board by way of ballast. On their arrival into the harbour this appeared to be precious stones and jewels. The only remained sculpture shows us the merchants with their ship on the open sea. _Fifth_ corner, 9 and 10 [W. L., 56 and 57]. We here see the Lord as a _fish_ obeyed by all other fishes of the lake. Because of want of rain this lake once dried up, and became a little pool in which the fish didn’t know any means to escape from the birds of prey. The _Bodhisattva_ prayed Indra for rain as a reward for his true virtue, and the deity himself came to him, and it rained as fast as it could pour, and Indra promised that the very same spot would be never tried again by such a plague. The first sculpture represents the fishes in the lake before, and the other one, after the rain. _Fifth_ corner, 11 [W. L. 58]. A young _sparrow_—it was the _Bodhisattva_—who despised all little worms and insects—was outdistanced by the other young of the paternal nest. When on the occasion of a forest-fire all other animals fled away he only remained behind, because he could not fly. Praying he knew to persuade the fire-god Agni into going off. Since that day every forest-fire died out on this spot. We see the young sparrow on the nest whilst the other birds fly away in all directions, and while all other animals give way for the fire. _Fifth_ corner, 12 [W. L. 59].
