Being helpless she would make love disdainfully.(11)

Then she told Quazi that she had one earnest desire in her mind.(12)

‘I have not seen the house ofthe Emperor of Delhi.
‘It is my greatest aspiration that I may go there.’(13)
Quazi ordered the demon, ‘Take her there to show her the palace,
‘And after that pick up her bed and bring her back here.’(14)
Chaupaee
The demon took her there and showed her all the mansions.
He exhibited her the King and the King’s son, by whose sight she felther heart pierced by the Cupid’s arrow.(15)
As her mind was lost in the thought of the Cupid, the letter slippeddown her hand.
She, then, returned to Quazi and the letter was left there.(16)
Dohira
‘I am the daughter of Farangh Shah and the demon carries me away(to Quazi).
‘When Quazi had made love to me, he sends me back.(l7)
‘I have fallen in love with you, and that is why I am writing this letter.
After annihilating Quazi and the demon, please take me as yourwoman.’(18)
Chaupaee
He conducted some incantations and the demon was killed.
Then he called in Quazi, tied his arms and threw him in the river.(19)
He married the woman and, inevitably, revelled in making love,
As he had burnt demon through sorcery and later killed Quazi.(20)
She had manoeuvred with subterfuge and had achieved him, whomshe desired for’
And through him got the demon burnt and then eliminated Quazi.(21)
Dohira

And got the demon and Quazi exterminated.(22)(l)
