Passage 28

In English

Since he was not able to protect even the food that had been given to him, he started shouting all the more loudly, ‘I am hungry, I am hungry.’ At this point, the king awoke from sleep. As he got up from his sleep, he saw that he was lying on his couch in the bedroom of his palace; while in his dream, he was wandering in a forest, shouting, ‘I am hungry, I am hungry.’ He therefore wondered what was true, this or that!” The sage made this fact known to everybody present there.
