His yellow turban became untied and clothes became muddy.He ran to and fro. Standing defeated he tried to find his parents among the crowd.His cries were suppressed into sobs.

He ran quickly to a nearby shrine which was flooded with people.Near the entrance of the temple, the crowd became very thick.Men with flashy murderous eyes and hefty shoulders congested the entrance.

He struggled to make out a way between them as he was knocked to and fro by their brutal movements.He might have been trampled underfoot.

He took the child to the snake charmer playing his flute to the swaying cobra, showed him the colorful balloons, offered him a flower garland and sweets.The child wanted only his mother and father. All the things which he desired earlier were of no use to him now that his parents were not there with him.
