That night Kee Dayoon lay upon his bed and did not

he started for the kingdom of Besukl. The giant's two bro-
thers, Kotbuta and Angkotbuta, agreed to go with him to
the capital of Majapahit at once.
Soon Kee Dayoon, accompanied by the king's brothers,
set out for the kingdom of Majapahit on his strange
errand as a marriage go-between.suruhan
II.
One morning the queen was seated es usual on her
throne, listening to reports given by some of the high pegawat tinggl
officials. Rangga Lawe, the general, was also present-
After all the reports had been given, she turned to Rangga
Lawe and said: "There is an important matter that wor-menggoda
ries me a great deal, and about which I wish to know
your opinion-Last night I had a dream. I dreamed that
our country was visited by a great flood. All the people,
cattle and houses were drowned. I myself was carried
away helplessly by the rapid currents. Then you came
and tried to save me, but alas! you were too late
«As the flood was raging, suddenly my body was mengamuk
caught by the branches of a banyan tree, which I held pohon warlngin
as tightly as I could-Then I saw three big bats hovering kslong (keluangi
above me and swooping down to attack me. My menjambar
heart was filled with terror, and so I woke up. Now tell
me honestly, what does the dream foretell?"meramalken
But General Rangga Lawe did not answer-Sorrow
was shown on his countenance-wadjah
"O your Majesty, there is no need for your Majesty
to be anxious," he said at last-"The dream does not chawatir
mean any harm. It is a good dream."
But the clever queen knew that Rangga Lawe had
not told her the truth. She lowered her head; deep lines
appeared on her usually smooth, well-shaped forehead.
Just at this moment there unexpectedly arriveddg. tak disangka2
at the gate of the palace three delegates from the king-
dom of Belambangan. A messenger was sent to invite them
in, and the three delegates soon entered the palace.
The whole assembly were terrified when theysidang

sengers who came to report to her the sad news of the
war—news of battles lojt, and demands for more men and
weapons for the war.
That morning when the queen ascended her throne as
usual, her heart, sure enough, was heavy within her-Many
lives and beasts had besn sacrificed to check the advancing
hordes of barbarians from Belambanaan, but it was all gerombolsn
in vain. "What plan shall we adopt? What countermovc tentangan
can we take?" she kept on asking herself. For no matter
how hard she tried, she could find no peace of mind.
So that morning the young queen felt distracted blngung

the adventurous young men who tried their luck in the

The pleople of Majapahit were in a state of great fear.
Then one day there arrived at the capital the regent
of Weleri who, eccotnpanied by Menakonchar, came to
make an official report of the rea Isituation of the war. All re-
s'stance had failed, they said, aad Ran^ga Lawe, the general,
had been killed, and that the country was in great estdanger.
When the queen heard of the sad news, her beautiful
face darkened. She remained silent for a long while, and
then, turning to the assemblage of civil and militar officials,
she addressed them as follows :
