itu akan marah. Ia bahkan sering berkata kasar. Walaupun begitu, orangtua dan
rakyat di kerajaan itu mencintainya. Hari berlalu, Putri pun tumbuh menjadi
gadis tercantik di seluruh negeri. Dalam beberapa hari, Putri akan berusia 17
tahun. Maka para penduduk di negeri itu pergi ke istana. Mereka membawa aneka
hadiah yang sangat indah. Prabu mengumpulkan hadiah-hadiah yang sangat banyak
itu, lalu menyimpannya dalam ruangan istana. Sewaktu-waktu, ia bisa
menggunakannya untuk kepentingan rakyat. Prabu hanya mengambil sedikit emas dan
permata. Ia membawanya ke ahli perhiasan. “Tolong, buatkan kalung yang sangat
indah untuk putriku,” kata Prabu. “Dengan senang hati, Yang Mulia,” sahut ahli
perhiasan. Ia lalu bekerja d sebaik mungkin, dengan sepenuh hati. Ia ingin
menciptakan kalung yang paling indah di dunia, karena ia sangat menyayangi
Putri. Hari ulang tahun pun tiba. Penduduk negeri berkumpul di alun-alun
istana. Ketika Prabu dan Ratu datang, orang menyambutnya dengan gembira.
Sambutan hangat makin terdengar, ketika Putri yang cantik jelita muncul di
hadapan semua orang. Semua orang mengagumi kecantikannya. Prabu lalu bangkit
dari kursinya. Kalung yang indah sudah dipegangnya. “Putriku tercinta, hari ini
aku berikan kalung ini untukmu. Kalung ini pemberian orang-orang dari penjuru
negeri. Mereka sangat mencintaimu. Mereka mempersembahkan hadiah ini, karena
mereka gembira melihatmu tumbuh jadi dewasa. Pakailah kalung ini, Nak,” kata
Prabu.
Putri menerima kalung itu. Lalu
ia melihat kalung itu sekilas. “Aku tak mau memakainya. Kalung ini jelek!” seru
Putri. Kemudian ia melempar kalung itu. Kalung yang indah pun rusak. Emas dan
permatanya tersebar di lantai. Itu sungguh mengejutkan. Tak seorang pun
menyangka, Putri akan berbuat seperti itu. Tak seorang pun bicara. Suasana
hening. Tiba-tiba meledaklah tangis Ratu Purbamanah. Dia sangat sedih melihat
kelakuan putrinya.Akhirnya semua pun meneteskan air mata, hingga istana pun
basah oleh air mata mereka. Mereka terus menangis hingga air mata mereka
membanjiri istana, dan tiba-tiba saja dari dalam tanah pun keluar air yang
deras, makin lama makin banyak. Hingga akhirnya kerajaan Kutatanggeuhan
tenggelam dan terciptalah sebuah danau yang sangat indah.
