যিজন সেনাপতিৰ সাহার্যৰ হাতত ৰজা নির্ভৰশীল আছিল, সেই সেনাপতিজনক ৰজাই নগৰৰ দুৱাৰ পৰিদর্শনৰ ভাৰ দিলে; কিন্তু লোক সকলে হুৰমূৰকৈ নগৰৰ বাহিৰলৈ ওলাই যাওঁতে প্রৱেশদ্বাৰৰ পথতে লোক সকলৰ ভৰিৰ গচকত তেওঁৰ মৃত্যু হ’ল। ঈশ্বৰৰ লোক ইলীচাৰ ওচৰলৈ ৰজা যেতিয়া নামি অহিছিল, তেতিয়া ইলীচাই ৰজাক যি কথা কৈছিল, সেনাপতিজন সেইদৰেই মৰিল।
