[2148] Then the other parrot, the red-beaked one, welcomed him:
"Welcome to you, great king! And for you it is no ill coming.
You who are master have arrived; whatever there is here, declare [your wish].
Tiṇḍuka fruits and piyāla fruits, madhuka fruits and kāsumārī fruits —
fruits sweet as honey: eat, O king, the choicest, the best.
This cool drinking water, too, has been brought from a mountain cavern;
drink of it, great king, if you so desire.
Those who are the attendants here have gone to the forest to glean;
rise up and take for yourself — I have no hands to give."
