-IV.] BENGALI LANGUAGE & LITERATURE. 289 Laksmindara and Behula are disguised as a Yogi and Yogint. ‘‘Laksmindara and Behulg in disguise, begged Yogi and from door to door. But the people of Nichhani হা Nagar did not recognise them. They visited every house begging alms, and they sounded the horn as they passed, reciting the name of Civa. People threw rice and cowries on their plate; but as soon as they were given, the alms disappeared and no one could tell how they had vanished. Behula’s
father was Saha—the merchant. His house stood in the centre of the village; around it were large and beautiful straw-built sheds, which were like lofty walls, and inside was a house that sparkled with gold. There lived Saha the merchant with his wife Amala. Behula went to see her parents. As she was disguised, no one recognised _ her. It was mid-day and the sun was up. The seeming Yogi and Yogini entered the inner appartments. The Yogi sounded his horn and Amala came out. থালে দিতে চাল কড়ি আচন্বিতে Ges | বুঝিতে না পারে কেহ বলে নানা ভাবে । বেহুলার বাপ যিনি সায় সদাগর । নগরের মধ্যস্থলে তার বটে ঘর । aye ঘরের দ্বার বিচিত্র আকার । প্রাচীর প্রমাণ তার চারিদিকে ঘর | বাটার ভিতরে দ্বার সোণার নিছনি । ALA ACTA SITS AIA CICA | বেহুল! নাচনী গেল TY TI দেখিতে । মায়া বলে কেহ তারে না পারে চিনিতে। 37
