the raja's son said to them, "do not quarrel for these things. i will shoot four arrows in four different directions. whichever of you gets to my first arrow, shall have the first thing the bed. whosoever gets to the second arrow, shall have the second thing the bag. he who gets to the third arrow, shall have the third thing the bowl. and he who gets to the fourth arrow, shall have the last things the stick and rope." to this they agreed, and the prince shot off his first arrow.
