6. SOMILAK, THE WEAVER
Once upon a time there lived a weaver, named Somilak. He used to make garments, dyed in various patterns for wealthy people. For all his efforts, he could earn enough money for only food and clothes. He saw that other weavers were wealthy even when they made coarse fabrics.
One day he said to his wife
Somilak: “My dear, Look at these fellows. They make poor stuff but they earn lot of money. This city does not offer me decent living. I am going to another city.”
