The boy climbed the tree and seized the animal by its neck, but, on discovering that it was a snake, threw it away. The snake fell on the doctor and bit him so severely that he died. - [Previous: v2.c36.2479](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2479) - [Next: v2.c36.2481](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2481) - [Up: v2.c36](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2480](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.2480) · Pramāṇa
