had been going on there, he wended his way to the kingís palace. The king paid him
homage and gave him a seat. (1ó4)

Seeing her beauty the sage forgot all about his dispassion and remained gazing
on her for a long time. When he read the auspicious marks on her body, he was lost
in reverie. He was gladdened at heart, but he would not openly mention the happy
characteristics. ìHe who weds this girl,î he said to himself, ìShall become immortal;
and no one shall be able to conquer him in battle. He whom ›∂lanidhiís daughter selects
for her lord shall be adored by the entire creation, both animate and inanimate.î Having
read these characteristics the sage kept them to himself, and mentioned a few
fabricated ones to the king. Telling the king that his daughter was of good promise,
Nårada left. He thought within himself, ìLet me devise and try some means whereby
the princess may choose me for her husband.î He had no more zeal to practise Japa
(muttering of sacred formulas) or austerity. ìGood God, how am I to get the girl?î he
said to himself. (1ó4)
