The content tells when Princess Maddi went out for fruits there were unnatural happenings such as no much fruits as before; the climate was gloomy; on her return, she found her way barred by three fierce animals including a lion, a tiger and a leopard which were transformed by devas. When arrived at the hermitage she had found no children. She tried to look for them until the night but not found. When returned hermitage she was rebuked by Vessantara.
