In her disappointment and anger, she beat Ālan. The enraged monkey attacked both Sundarī and Makarakāṭi and harmed them by biting and tearing with its nails. They in turn, beat him to death. Thus Sundarī lost all her ill-gotten wealth and was reduced to utter poverty and distress. - [Previous: c9.5157](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9.5157) - [Next: c9.5159](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9.5159) - [Up: c9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9.5158](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c9.5158) · Pramāṇa
