### [c11.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c11.2)

... through the stones the lizard and the snake  
Rustle their brittle length ...  
Scavenger kites hang waiting for the dead  
Over the old and solitary ram,  
And the mule picks its way up the dried river-bed.  
(V. Sackville-West, \*The Land\*)
