While his country was being devastated both north and south,and his subjects slaughtered or enslaved, king Ekatat, inefticient and debauched as ever , hardly realised the danger in which he stood, only the actual sight of the Burmese besiegens roused him to some sense of his peril , and feverish efforts were made to defend the capital. Even at this critical time, however, he was inclined to rely far more on all kinds of super- stitious chams and magic amulets, and his people, encouraged by example , wasted their time in seek-ing for talismans to render them selves invisible or invulnerable
