Thai Rubbing from the West Wall of the Temple of Wat Po, Bangkok; The Giant Bhuanuraj Puts Poisonous Fruits in the Path of Hanuman's Army and Turns Himself into a Forest Wherein He May Destroy Them, But Is Detected by Hanuman
On reaching the enchanted plain, Hanuman snuffs the scented air and looks about him with darting eyes that miss no detail.
Congratulations," he says, "an excellent site, Prakontan. I couldn't have found a better myself. Firm, turfy ground, abundant flowing water, and plenty of wholesome fruit, which is just what we monkeys live on. Why the place might have been laid out exactly for our convenience." But even as he speaks, he notices that there are no spoor near the streams, no birds sing among the blossoms, and not so much as a single ant is to be seen on the ripe fruit hanging from the boughs.
"Too good to be true," says Hanuman to himself and without further ado dives head first into the ground to see what lies at the bottom of the business.
He immediately finds himself face to face with a very surprised giant. "And who are you, old earthworm?" he demands, flourishing his sword. "Answer, or eat the dust !"
Panurat gives a frightful roar, springs out of his hiding place and snatches up his cudgel.
"Learn some manners through the thick end of my stick, ignorant monkey," he bellows and aims a deadly blow at Hanuman's head.
