VAJRA BODHI SEA 

JANUARY 1971
Volume I
Series 2, No.10
  

JEWELED BOW HAND AND EYE
The brave and heroic general meets no opposition.
In his hand the jeweled bow shoots the crafty villians!
Loudly singing the triumphant return, official promotions flourish;
With benefit to his office increased, happiness abounds.
