Why is he so sad?
- It is natural law, for humanity; spring-time-suited, old age-weak-skinned, skin wrinkled, cheeks, eyes ignored, deaf ears, back fatigue, pillow.
Will this be too old, Channa ?
Also, say to Him.
Channa 's reply hit the Prince-mind, making him surprised, fearful, thoughtless. From small to large never encountered a carpet-scenes that elicit the biased situation of mankind's number as such, so Prince-sadly, told Channa turned back to the palace.
