This is the story of Jayaprana which happened in Bali many years ago. Jayaprana was a very clever young man who could sing very well and was good at telling stories. One day Jayaprana's parents became ill and died and not long after that his brothers and sisters also died. He was left all alone. After his family died, the king asked Jayaprana to live with him. The king liked him because he was good at singing and could tell interesting and funny stories. The king liked to listen to him. One day the king said to him, 'Jayaprana, you are a man now and you must find a wife. Every man must marry. It is not good if you do not have a wife.' The king said, 'No, you are old enough to marry. You must marry quickly. You can choose one of the young women in my house.' But Jayaprana was not interested in them.
