Note 2 — Tamarind Ṭikkā

One day, while the six uncles and Tamarind Ṭikkā were watching cattle in the field, the uncles said, “Tamarind Ṭikkā, we will watch. You go and eat, and come back.” After he had gone home, the six uncles cut all the throats2 of his cattle. When he returned the six uncles said, “Anē! Tamarind Ṭikkā. Some men came, and having tied us all and thrown us down in the dust, cut all the throats of your cattle. Not a thing could we do.” Tamarind Ṭikkā said, “Hā. It is good.”
