That day Pirap came from his celestial abode to his garden. He saw the lifeless body of his battered watchman and rushed angrily through the garden to punish those responsible for this. In the shade of a Rang tree be found the three royal children sleeping. Furiously he called to Pra Ram. He let his red eyes rove from one to the other until they rested on Nang Sida. She was so frightened that she could not breathe. Pirap sprang forward, seized her, and flew away. Pra Ram shot an arrow at him. The pain caused the monster to release Nang Sida, who fell to the earth.
