What is Khun Chang Khun Phaen? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
 
“ Please forgive me. I’ve fallen in love and into utter confusion. I’ve had to put up with this torture for days.  I want to put my life in your hands. I’m like a rabbit that wants to enjoy the moon. He’s stuck on the ground because he can’t fly. What he wants is so far away in the sky, he pines and mopes until his body wastes away. Only Lord Indra can put him out of his misery by letting him romp with the heavenly rabbit in the moon. Little Phim is like the rabbit. You are like Indra . I’m counting on you. Maybe two rabbits can taste the joys of heaven together. Please help. Get me out of this darkness and gloom. Save me from dashing to an early death.  I’m not using words lightly. I’ll help and support you from today until you die.” Phlai Kaeo (Khun Phaen)
“ I’m not listening to this.  You’ll get my back striped. I’ve never acted as a go-between before. If we put a foot wrong, the scandal will be as loud as the troops in a mask play. All that stuff about Phim being like a rabbit in heaven is very clever. But I’ve never seen two rabbits in the moon. If Indra went to the aid of a miserable rabbit, he’d be found at fault all over the world. And the moon would be tarnished by the romping. I’m too scared.  I won’t get the meat to eat or the skin to sit on, only the bones hung around my neck. If you get Phim, you’ll be all smiles. But it’s me who’ll suffer the shouting and the shame. It’s like killing a snake but not getting to eat snake curry because some hawk or crow swoops down and snatches it away. From now on, stop thinking and hoping. This is not something you nibble. One bite and you die. ” Saithong (Phim’s maid)

“ Oh, the misfortune of being born a woman! I should be happy but I cannot be. I went astray in love’s pleasures without thinking of shame. Because I wasn’t strong-willed, I now suffer. It’s a waste to have beautiful looks, a pretty name, and a gentle manner if you have a terribly wicked heart. The good in me is the best in the land; the bad, nobody can match.” Wanthong

“ My love for Khun Phaen is a great love because we shared such hardship going into the forest together. We lacked everything but loved and cherished each other. All the time I lived with Khun Chang, he said not one harsh word, heaped money on me and me alone, and placed servants at my beck and call as if they were my own.”   Wanthong

Everyman vs. wealth and power, 1 ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
“ You thought I had only low rank and little of any kind of property so you could act highhandedly and I wouldn’t have the standing to pursue you in court. Your new son-in-law [Khun Chang] is such a big fellow, overflowing with so much property, and so many elephants and horses, that you conspired together to treat me roughly with no respect. You think I deserve to be cut to pieces like this just because I’m poor.” Khun Phaen to Wanthong’s mother

Riak khwan –  soul calling
At dusk, they made a  baisi  with pussbosom flowers, water peony, and gem jasmine. Rice, fish, sweets, and savories were placed on salvers . T hey all bowed to pay respect and chanted for the benefit of Phlai Ngam’s soul. “ Soul of Phlai Ngam, beloved, come behold these brilliant golden trays, scented sandal and garland sprays. Soul, don’t stray to forest, hill, and lea with lion, monkey, sambar, tiger. Don’t wander, all alone and lonely. Come to grandma’s home, be merry, and prosper in safety a hundred years.” .   Phlai Ngam welcomed at Kanburi
Preparing for battle
His chest was tattooed with a picture of Phra Mokkhala, his back with a Phakhawam image with eyes closed, and his flanks with a  na  formula for stunning. He had a jet gem embedded in his head, golden needles in each shoulder, a large diamond in the middle of his forehead, a lump of fluid metal in his chest, and herbal amber and cat’s eye in his back. He brought amulets,  takrut , and a Phakhawam image,  filled a bath with river water, put in the charms and herbs, and used a formula to make the water boil as if over a fire.  He put on a  takrut , glistening mercury charm, diamond ring that sparkled like a star, and daubed enchanted whiteclay powder on his forehead. Picking up his lance, he strode forward to leap on the back of his magnificent horse.   Saentri Phetkla, military commander of Chiang Mai
