कश्चन युवकः पत्न्या सह विपणिं गत्वा सर्वदा एकस्याः वृद्धातः एव फलानि क्रीणाति स्म । तस्याः निर्धनतां ज्ञात्वा साहाय्यार्थं धनं दातुं तेन यदा उद्यतं तदा तया विनयेन तत् निराकृतम् । तस्मात् तेन युवकेन कश्चन उपायः कृतः । तेन यः उपायः कृतः तम् उपायं ज्ञात्वा वृद्धा अन्यम् उपायं करोति । युवकेन कः उपायः कृतः ? वृद्धया कृतः उपायः कः ? इति कुतूहलेन इमां कथां शृण्वन्तु । (“केन्द्रीयसंस्कृतविश्वविद्यालयस्य अष्टादशीयोजनान्तर्गततया एतासां कथानां ध्वनिप्रक्षेपणं क्रियते”) A young man, along with his wife, always bought fruits from an old woman in the market.
