The Swan said Forsooth O crow, you will course in hundred and different ways. I shall however fly in one kind of motion which all other birds know; for I do not know any other, O crow. As for yourself, O you of red eyes, you may fly in any kind of way you like.
हंस उवाच शतमेकं च पातानां त्वं काक पतिता ध्रुवम्॥ एकमेव तु यं पातं विदुः सर्वे विहंगमाः तमहं पतिता काक नान्यं जानामि कञ्चन॥ पत त्वमपि ताम्राक्ष येन पातेन मन्यसे।
