The story of the sons of Indu
Once upon a time in a city which did not exist, there were three princes, brave and happy. Of them two were unborn and the third had not been conceived. All their relatives died and they decided to go elsewhere. Very soon, unable to bear the heat of sun, they fell into a swoon. Their feet were burnt by hot sand. The tips of grass pierced them. They reached the shade of three trees of which two did not exist, and the third had not been planted. After resting there for some time and eating the fruits of those trees, they proceeded further.
They reached the banks of three rivers; of them two were dry and in the third there was no water. The princes had a refreshing bath and quenched their thirst in them. Then they reached a huge city which was about to be built. Entering it they found three palaces of exceeding beauty. Of them two had not been built at all and the third had no walls. They entered the palaces and found three golden plates; two of them have been broken into two and the third had been pulverized. They took ninety-nine minus one hundred grams of rice and cooked it. Then they invited three holly men to be their guests; of them two had no body and the third had no mouth. After these three holly men had eaten the food, the three princes partook of the rest of the cooked food. They were greatly pleased. Thus they lived in the city for a long-long time, in joy and peace.
