  • Mara, with mud splashed and drenched in water and , trusts with the King that Goddess has again appeared in his dream and warned him about the Veda flowing over the lake's banks.
  • Even if Mara told her that at her request the bank had been built she had not relented. The goddess seemed in a violent mood, Mara says. Mara advises the King that the whole kingdom would be lost if the lake's water starts overflowing.
  • Even as the king prepares to let his subjects know about the imminent flood and doom, Mara tells him there is a way to save the kingdom. It says the Goddess promised the not to overflow the bank until Mara came back and the king could make Mara not go back by killing him.
