很久以前,有五个学者来到维加亚纳加尔有名的帝王克里希南·德瓦拉雅的宫殿里,这五个学者分别是逻辑学家、语法学家、音乐家、占星家和物理学家。他们都表示自己在某一方面很有专长。在聪明宰相蒂马鲁苏的建议下,国王让五个人先去自己做饭吃,然后再来接受奖赏。宰相安排他们住在一间宽敞的房子里,并准备好了必要的用具,他还派一些人暗中观察他们的行动。
A long time ago, five scholars came to the palace of Krishnan Dvoraya, a famous emperor in Vijayanagar. These five scholars are respectively logicians, grammarians, musicians, astrologers and physicist. They all said they have great expertise in one area. At the suggestion of the wise prime minister, Timarusu, the king asked five people to cook for themselves and then come back for rewards. The Prime Minister arranged for them to live in a spacious house and prepare the necessary utensils, and he also sent some to secretly observe their actions.
