        113. And forthwith the wandering ascetics scratched [the outlines of] a breach on a rich merchant's towering palace,
        on a part of the wall that was easily broken through.
        114. When a breach in the wall had been made he dug out with a very sharp tool an extremely well concealed hole,
        which resembled a sirivaccha and which made it easy to get in and out.
