Answer:
1. The names of two bollocks were 'Hira' and 'Moti'. They were beautiful, had great stature and belonged to the fine Pachai stock. The two were like sworn brothers as they had lived together for a very long time. Both the bullocks used silent language for conversation and showed affection by licking and sniffing one another.
2. The two bullock's couldn't get away from Gaya's house on their own the second time because the ropes used to tie them were thick and strong.
3. Hira and Moti were caught in a peas field by two men with sticks who surrounded them. Hira's hooves were so deep in mud that he couldn't run away. Moti was in soggy field and ran back to help Moti and both got caught by the watchmen. They were shut and tied up in the pound for a week without proper food.
4. The two bullocks were unable to walk slowly even though they were so scared of the bearded man because the way they were traveling after the auction seemed familiar to them. They remembered the road through which Gaya had taken them, recognized the fields, orchads and village. Hence their pace of walking was quick and had forgotten the fatigue (weakness) they were feeling before.
