great duty. His duty was to look after the king's horses, gave them food, cleaned the horses and
their mews. Suta liked to take a walk after doing his chores to relax for awile.
One day, when Suta was walking near a lake after doing his chores, he heard a woman
screaming. So, Suta hurried to find the source of the scream. Finally, he found a girl there, who
leter figured out as king's daughter. He saw the king's daughter in danger. There was a giant
snake would attack her.
Suta was afraid, but he also worried about the princess. So he took a big stick and hit the
snake on its head. The snake was fallen down in pain and finally died.
"Thank you, Suta. You've saved my life," said the princess.
"No needed for that princess. It's my duty as your father's servant to help you." Suta
replied
"Would you be my friend, Suta. Because I don't have any friend." the princess asked.
"Of course my princess, I will be your friend and always take care of you." Suta

"But I love her, and he also love me. You know, he is the one who help me out there." the
princess said.
"No, you will not marry him. I will not allow that things happen." The king said.

in jail for having the nerve to ask the pricess to marry him. In jail, Suta was not given anything to
eat or drink.
