One day it happened that he went on a hunt with her, and they encountered a deer and he said to Diliramma, “Do you see that deer? Now I want to shoot it with the arrow, but in what part do you want me to wound it. If you will tell me that, then I will certainly wound it in that part."
To which she replied, "Sire, I am convinced that, since you are a valiant archer, the deer will be hit wherever you wish. But please, she confided in him, I’ll tell you that I would love to see the animal wounded with a single shot, both in its foot and its ear." Diliramma believed, that it was something impossible, that the Lord could never do. But Beramo, who was endowed with noble and great talent, promised to accomplish what the young woman just requested, and he took a slingshot in hand, and released it, striking the deer's ear with the projectile.
As irrational animals usually do, the deer, which was in pain, scratched its ear with its foot, and the Emperor without hesitating shot it with bow and arrow and the deer which kept scratching itself was hit in the foot and the ear in a single shot. All of his barons admired him immensely, as they had observed great and shrewd foresight by Beramo, who said cheerfully to the young woman, “What do you say, Diliramma? Have I satisfied your request?”
